Dance, rythm, sound.
Everywhere. Everything. Everyone.
A cliché? Then it's time for reclaiming. Reclaim the clichés!
When you stress in the metro or queue at the mall; next time you flirt or are bored and frustrated cleaning your (or someone elses) home or waiting for the bathroom - imagine it's a dancenumber. Classical, musical, folk, or the latest avantgardistic piece there is.
If someone is pestering you - imagine them as a character in the show who any moment will break into a song-and-dance. Maybe the whole office is a choire.
People are beautiful, and maybe the most funny beings on the planet once you start looking. But don't be afraid of the serious numbers; it's when you don't let yourself be moved it becomes a cliché.
One of the ideas of the film INVITATION is to explore the camera as a dancer, filmcuts as steps and rythm, and to reveal dance where you maybe wouldn't have thought of looking for it.
A little dogma-dancing.
The drums in the film were played by a danceclass on the beach in Dianna, Senegal.
These fishermen worked at the same beach. Due to the overfishing from huge foreign companies (mainly European) there is hardly any fish left. Along the beach lie abandoned shipwrecks slowly melting in the huge waves, with nets as ragged gauze. They make a cool scenography, but honestly...
...how about some social climatecompensation? Or try this one; how about not overfishing?
Art and politics. Is pretentiousness forbidden? Contageous? A cliché? Even a word?
Nuff zed. Let's dance!
