Overview
Originally screened as part of the BBC/Arts Council’s ‘Dance for the Camera’ series, Katrina McPherson’s dance film intimately tracks the frenetic movements of a solo dancer (choreographer/filmmaker Marisa Zanotti). Closely captured with hand-held cameras, the dancer’s disorienting spins are accompanied with a fittingly jittery electronic score by Philip Jeck.
