Since its creation in 1983, Rosas danst Rosas has been a staple in the Rosas repertoire. In his film, shot in 2002 at architect Henry Van de Velde's RITO school in Leuven, Thierry De Mey has created a fascinating cinematic interpretation of this ground-breaking performance. The precise, rhythmic editing creates a striking visual dynamic that matches the choreography. The dancers span several generations, accentuating the work's notion of progression and timelessness. The film captures the energy and feminist nature of the dance, while its aesthetic beauty reinforces its appeal to a wide audience.
