Wolf by Hofesh Shechter: Dance is like a dream; when you wake up you can’t explain how and why certain thoughts and things occurred, and why they occurred in that precise manner. “…like a punch which hits the spectator with a wave of energy!”
14’20’’ by Jiří Kylián is not only about "time". It is also about "speed", about "love" and about "aging"… all very simple but also incredibly complicated and for sure totally inexplicable!
Antitesi by Andonis Foniadakis a struggle between a search for the beauty of the past, intended as sort of nostalgia, and the present day situation: an agitated, dynamic, uncertain and violent reality”.
