< Go Back

A Film by Boris Paval Conen & Jirí Kylián.
Nederlands daans Theater.
Car Men: Choreography Jirí Kylián and director BorisPaval Conen made the film on location at a coal mione in the Czech Republic, where Kylián choreographed the piece for four dancers on the spot. The Dutch composer Han Otten arranged Bizet's score and also intergrated additional music specially composed for the film. Dancers: Sabine Kupferberg, Karel Hruska, David Krugel & Gioconda Barbuto .
La Cathédrale Engloutie: Claude Debussey's Prélude No.10 'La Cathédrale engloutie', first performed in Paris in 1910, is based on the acient Breton legend of the submerged cathedrale of the village of Ys. When Kylián chose this music in 1975 for his choreography, he reuced the legend to its core message in order to represent the eternal conflict seething inside the human soul that comes about from selfimposed laws and the temptation or obligation to break them.
Silent Cries: In an exceptionally moving solo by Sabine Kupferberg - half obscured and seemingly trapped behind a dirt-smeared pane of glass - Kylián and the dancer together went in search of the inner state in their piece 'Silent Cries', first performed at NDT in 1986.
