In 2006 Antony and the Johnsons and Charles Atlas took their collaborative performance Turning to major cities in Europe. This documentary film explores the heart of that performance.

This short feature is equal parts concert document, experimental art piece and portrait of the 13 women who were part of Antony and the Johnsons ‘Turning’ tour. The idea was that during each song a different women — including transsexuals, lesbians and straight women — would stand on a slowly turning platform, their images projected in giant size, as Antony performs some of his wonderfully emotional and personal songs – many of which touch on gender identity, or at least more generally on feeling like an outsider.

The post Charles Atlas – Turning (2012) first appeared on Cinema of the World.

Quote:
Employing a documentary treatment with a fictional script, Atlas presents a time capsule of London in the spring of 1985. Michael Clark, hailed as the rock star of British contemporary dance, is cast as a successful young choreographer. The film charts a half-typical, half-imaginary day in Clark’s life, beginning with a dream sequence.

Clark’s vigorous day includes an interview with a dance critic in a surreal skit featuring members of The Fall; a cemetery filming for an underground featurette; an erotic encounter in a mirrored bedroom; a nightclub scene; and dancing to exhaustion at home alone. The heart of the film centers on 12 principal dance sequences set in rehearsal, photo session, performance, and nightclub scenes.
