Pina 3D (PG)

Pina, Wim Wenders` 3D tribute to the late choreographer-dancer Pina Bausch, was thrilling and revelatory. As a spectator, to be positioned by the camera above, beside and amid the dancers of Bausch`s Wuppertal troupe is not unlike floating bodiless through more solid phantoms. All of Bausch’s best-known pieces are present: her interpretation of Stravinsky’s ‘The Rite of Spring`, in which feral single-sex gangs stomp on a layer of brown earth, or her ‘Café Müller`, where female dancers staggering about with closed eyes have faith that male partners will remove chairs from their path. Wenders sets several dances – and purists may baulk at this – in spectacular outdoor locations; for me the experience was nothing but uplifting.
