Bodies of Water

100%(1)IMDb

The film invites you to hold your breath and let yourself be transported and transformed by water in the company of curious individuals. At nightfall, they take over a public swimming pool. These bodies of water, immersed in the aquatic mass, transgress the limits of their natural environment and undergo a metamorphosis. They then engage in a contemporary dance that reveals them in a different light. The aquatic environment makes them supple and light, but also vulnerable and combative. This poetic, enveloping, and suffocating mass unites them, separates them, and constitutes them. The film explores the transformation of human bodies when they interact with water—a fluid and adaptable medium that simultaneously offers resistance. It plunges you underwater for an immersive experience that reveals a rare and otherwise inaccessible contemporary dance.
