May B is a rather intriguing documentary that takes some cues from Beckett's existential themes. The ten clay-coated performers portray bodies that, while deformed, communicate a raw, visceral humanity that’s often overlooked in traditional dance. It’s not just about the movement - it’s about the struggle, the fragility, and the persistence of the human spirit. The pacing feels almost hypnotic, with each scene lingering just long enough to create an atmosphere thick with emotion. You really get drawn into their world, one that defies ideals and embraces imperfections. It’s a challenging watch, but there’s something compelling about how it confronts the viewer with the reality of existence, the journey of humanity against the backdrop of silence.
