Kevin Dreyer, Associate Professor of Film, Television, and Theatre will introduce the 6:30 pm screening on Thursday, April 12.

“Dance, dance, or we are lost.” Pina Bausch’s final words summarize her life and provide the inspiration for acclaimed director Wim Wenders’ (WINGS OF DESIRE, BUENA VISTA SOCIAL CLUB) breathtaking tribute to the legendary choreographer. Bausch and her Tanztheater Wuppertal elevated dance into brilliantly subversive new expressive realms, and in this exhilarating film Wenders captures the raw, heart-stopping intensity of the movement and transforms it into a transcendent cinematic experience. An Oscar nominee for Best Documentary, PINA features interviews with and performances by Bausch’s beloved original company members, and offers an indelible image of an artist who went the full distance in her uncommonly rich creative life.

A limited number of FREE tickets for Thursday’s screenings are available for Nanovic Faculty Fellows and Minors in the European Studies program.

Tickets are $5 for faculty and $3 for all students. Call 574-631-2800 for reservations or online at performingarts.nd.edu.
