Pina Bausch was a German performer of modern dance, choreographer, dance teacher and ballet director whose work was featured in Wim Wender’s 2012 3D film Pina. She died in 2009 shortly before the filming began. In the film several of her long-term students described her remarkable capacity to watch them patiently for hours as if she were inside of them. Her brief incisive comments and observations could liberate their spontaneous movements prior to any thought. This short clip offers a glimpse of the freedom that her dancers experienced. See if you can watch it without judgment and notice the visceral impact on your body as you do so.
