BRIEF INTRODUCTION

A fascinating dance experience
The Dance Compagnia Aterballetto wants to give prominence again to the Italian art of dance in the world. In the provincial city of Reggio Emilia where in the 18th century the Italian tricolour, the symbol for freedom and national identity, had its origin, the ensemble was created in 1979 as a joint initiative of several theatres. Lead by the dancer and choreographer Maurio Bigonzetti, Aterballetto became the first permanent dance ensemble which managed to hold its ground independently of a theatre. Bigonzetti’s pieces for the ensemble are quite different from one another but they have one thing in common: they incorporate all aspects of art. Be it fine arts, drama, poetry, music – in the choreography of Aterballetto they all merge into an extraordinary dance event. Andreas Morell accompanied the Compagnia Aterballetto in her everyday life for his film. The beauty of physical discipline but also the tough physical work and the intimate moments of complete concentration are conveyed in personal encounters, at performances and rehearsals: dancers from all over the world on the painstaking and fascinating path of artistic creativity.
