| Inhalt: |
Emphasizing raw physicaIity, craft, and in-the-moment fervor over exposition, TOWARDS MATHILDE, from filmmaker CIaire Denis (BEAU TRAVAIL, 35 SHOTS OF RUM, HIGH LlFE), is a documentary portrait par exceIlence. At its center is Mathilde Monnier, whose title as head of the MontpeIlier NationaI Centre for Choreography sends her and an elite group of dancers through numerous, demanding performance pieces, each captured on sumptuous 8 and 16mm images by cinematographers Agnès Godard and Hélène Louvart. Monnier s significant taIents are a clear point of fascination and admiration for the fiIm crew, yet her mysterious aura that of an artist totalIy in command of themselves and, by extension, the viewers remains throughout. Released in the U.S. for the first time, TOWARDS MATHILDE is a singular work among Denis era-defining oeuvre.
