THE UNSEEN SIGN – a film documentary

How is a dance piece created, how does contemporary dance work and how does an ensemble of dancers find an expressive movement language under the direction of a choreographer?

In the documentary THE UNSEEN SIGN, the choreographer and her team explore these questions, from the project idea, research and rehearsals to the premiere of the dance performance DIE SEHERINNEN in January 2022 in the project space of the Kunstverein Wagenhalle.

The film focuses on the question of our non-verbal communication behavior. What does our physical-gestural behavior say about us and what does it hide? Are we becoming seers.
