An Istanbul choreographic portrait where the obsessive fear of sinking doesn't impede pleasure and carelessness.
Seeing « Nefès » - 2002 Pina Bausch’s choreographic portrait of Istanbul - again today, dangles a world of paradoxical feelings between the obsessive fear of vanishing and the lust for life, between the dark waters of death and some geysers bubbling with pleasure. The hyphen of it all? The enthusiasm for art and playing.
