Dance for the Camera Four: Part 4 - Bloody Mess

See TV listings for this programme

Dance for the Camera is a series of unique short dance films, made collaboratively by choreographers and directors and conceived especially for television. This part takes a dark look at our continuing affair with screen violence.

Director/ Choreographer
Alison Murray

Composer
Annabelle Pangborn

A dark, provocative film which explores our complex relationship with screen violence and raises questions about the violent imagery of many contemporary movies. Are we attracted by the fantasies of power, the possibility of catharsis or escapism, or lured by the seductive glamour of destruction?

The performers enter this world of movie mythology, but there is an uneasy blurring of the line between fantasy and reality. Their edgy gestures and movements create an atmosphere of foreboding with an inevitable and explosive conclusion.
