Lindsay Dances - Theatre and life according to Lindsay Kemp
May. 02,2020
A documentary that collects for the first time and in an almost anthological way the historical repertoire of the Lindsay Kemp Company's shows, from the end of the 70s to the 90s. With footage from the Rai Teche and private archives, and an intimate and touching unpublished interview conducted by the director in her home in Livorno. The documentary is unique in its kind because it collects for the first time in an almost anthological way the repertoire of the shows of the glorious Lindsay Kemp Company from Salome to Flowers, from A Midsummer Night's Dream to Duende and Onnagata, up to the last show Kemp Dances. Lindsay Dances celebrates one of the most original, creative, and innovative artists in contemporary dance theatre. The documentary was nominated by Rai for the 72nd edition of the Prix Italia 2020.
Reviews
Excellent, Without a doubt!!
It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.
It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.
