Dance Film “Eclipse” Captures Intimate Conversation With Not A Word Spoken
W
atch as Ballet BC dancers Darren Devaney and Thibaut Eiferman communicate soundlessly what it is to be fully witnessed by another.
No words in this eloquent short film, only Dustin O’Halloran‘s original composition, “We Move Lightly,” David Cooper‘s photography and Linda Arkelian‘s choreography. Put together: nothing short of magic.
