Cliffdancers
Three dance duos.
One performance.
A young, international generation of choreographers offers their own reflection on contemporary popular culture. In the digital age, they ask themselves what is real. What is friendship? What is beauty? What is a body?
Together, the three ‘performances’ form a single whole.
From YouTube trends and unboxing videos, through avatars as digital alter egos, to a complete immersion in the internet.
CLIFFdancers takes you on a unique rollercoaster ride.
