When developing the idea of filming " A midsummer night's dream", I insisted on planning a tue ballet film which, for me, is completely different tha a documentary. Within the three days of recording, we did not schedule a single complete run-through of the work. Instead, we recorded the film in sequences and with exciting camera positions which can be compared to the way one would film a drama. What we really love when watching films, is the immediacy, the vigrancy of the moment. The camera being so close, means that we don't wont the dancers representing somethig, we don't want the presenting something, we wont them simply being -"now". We want hat spark of truth that sprigns toward us and that touches us." -- Contenidor
