Pina

Deutsche Film- und Medienbewertung (FBW) vergibt die Auszeichnung:
Tanzfilm, Prädikat besonders wertvoll

https://i0.wp.com/i.telegraph.co.uk/multimedia/archive/01434/pina-bausch_1434819c.jpg?resize=166%2C104Pina Bausch war eine der größten Balletttänzerinnen und –choreographinnen unserer Zeit. In Wuppertal gründete sie 1973 das Wuppertaler Tanztheater und arbeitete dort mit ihrer stetig wachsenden internationalen Truppe bis zu ihrem plötzlichen Tod im Jahr 2009. Wim Wenders porträtiert ihre Arbeit auf herausragende Weise. Mit der 3D-Technik findet er eine filmische Ausdrucksmöglichkeit, die das Faszinosum der Tanz-Avandgarde facettenreich bebildert. Wenders mischt Ausschnitte aus Pinas berühmten Bühneninszenierungen mit einzigartigen Choreographien auf Straßen, Plätzen und an atemberaubenden architektonischen Orten. Interviews mit Mitgliedern des Ensembles zeugen von Pinas unerschöpflich künstlerischer Kraft, ihrer tiefen Menschlichkeit und der nie versiegenden Besessenheit an der Kunstform Tanz.

Wenders PINA ist eine Liebeserklärung an ihre Person, eine Hommage an die Künstlerin und eine filmische Verbeugung vor dem Tanz.

MyTree.TV empfiehlt sich diesen Film anzuschauen und dann die ganze Nacht tanzen zu gehen denn Tanzen ist die senkrechte Ausführung eines waagrechten Verlangens, eines aufrechten Individuums!

“The Dancer believes that his art has something to say which cannot be expressed in words or in any other way than by dancing… there are times when the simple dignity of movement can fulfill the function of a volume of words.
