ORE is blue, gleaming, fragile and powerful. This screendance project shot in Saigon, Vietnam, follows 11 dancers in this rich and chaotic city. Believing in a deep and visceral body language, Kim-Sanh Châu and Ray Lavers’s creation is intimate and assumes its own subjectivity. Their work is anchored within space, as well as rhythm. ORE is their second screendance shot in Vietnam, following Inner Smoke, which was awarded Best Direction 2017 by Festival Quartiers Danses / Cinémathèque québécoise.
