The Rain
SE, 2007,Director: Pontus Lidberg
Choreography: Pontus Lidberg
Time:25 minutes
Tableaus of encounters between people, where memories are mixed with longing. Slowly, the movement washes over these people’s characters, forming a pattern of which they are unaware - they are all linked. The rain touches them all.

Car Men is a collaboration between the world famous choreographer Jíri Kylían and filmmaker Boris Paval Conen. Based on the opera Carmen by Georges Bizet they shot a hilarious and poetic short film in the destroyed landscape of a Czech brown coal mine. The actors in this film are older dancers (around 50 years old) and the main prop is a 'TATRA 87', a famous car from 1937.
