QUIET WALK Documentary Will Screen From the Hong Kong Dance Company

The documentary "Quiet Walk" has unique scenery. The work shows dancers refining their thinking about the body, martial arts and performance in their daily training. We see the process of performers questioning themselves under the camera, including doubts, uneasiness, curiosity, Joy and other mixed emotions, director Zhuo Xiang objectively sorted out these states, allowing their reality to penetrate the performance.

As choreographer Yang Yuntao said: "Dance training makes our bodies too smart and too inertial, and dance just Don’t be so smart, dance requires a bit of clumsiness and honesty.”

This kind of honesty is also present in the works of director Zeng Cuishan, who directed the dance short film "Yi Yi", which records the process of gay couples and dance artists Huang Tianbao and Guo Yafu crawling forward in hardship.

Explore dancing with the deceased virtually. From martial arts to non-dance, the symposium will first play the work "Quiet Walk" directed by Zhuo Xiang. Yang Yuntao, Zhuo Xiang and Zeng Cuishan will communicate with each other after the screening and tell the audience their pursuit and understanding of themselves, records and life. .
