Solo

About This Movie

So, 'Solo' from 1989 is this intriguing piece that really dives into the realm of contemporary dance. You’ve got Bernardo Montet’s choreography, which is beautifully crafted for the camera thanks to Robert Cahen’s direction. The whole thing is set to the hauntingly atmospheric music of Michèle Bokanowski, creating this almost ethereal vibe. What stands out is the sense of isolation portrayed through dance; the dancer really feels like they're in their own world on that stage. The pacing is experimental, allows the viewer to soak everything in, and the visuals are treated with such care, it almost feels like a painting come to life. A unique watch for anyone who appreciates the fusion of motion and music.
