ONE DAY PINA ASKED… (1983) is a captivating exploration of the life and work of legendary choreographer Pina Bausch. It offers an intimate glimpse into the world of Bausch’s Wuppertal Dance Theater company, capturing their rehearsals, performances and personal reflections. Through Akerman’s lens, we witness the power and emotion of Bausch’s innovative dance style, blending movement, monologue and narrative to explore themes of love, memory and human connection.
After the screening, a facilitated discussion will take place with exhibition curator Hsu Fang Tze and Dr. Tania Roy, Senior Lecturer and Chair of the Graduate Programme in English Literature at NUS. Explore the themes of dance, art and the human experience as depicted in ONE DAY PINA ASKED… (1983).
