In this revelatory new documentary, director Reiner E. Moritz poses the question: How has the media infIuenced dance in the twentieth century and vice versa? Over this period an extensive archive of beautiful choreography, performed by the finest dancers has accumulated on fiIm and television, resulting in a major dispersion of dance through the media. In addition, new art forms such as dance movies and balIet fiIms have emerged from this development in moving images, where dance is created specificaIIy for the camera. A History Of Dance On Screen contains an impressive amount of archive footage featuring the greatest dancers and choreographers of the twentieth and twenty first centuries, framed by in-depth interviews with great personaIities of the contemporary dance scene featuring AIvin AiIey, Pina Bausch, Maurice Béjart, Matthew Bourne, Margot Fonteyn, Martha Graham, John Neumeier, RudoIf Nureyev, Anna PavIova, Roland Petit, Sasha WaItz and many others. |
