The camera follows several choreographers during their creative process. They are asked questions regarding their artistic production and their modes of working and approaches, while their choreographic methods and practices are documented. In this way,
the project shifts the receptive gaze– away from performance to aspects and moments of rehearsal and creation. The resulting films make visible creative processes that would otherwise remain hidden.
