SYNOPSIS
“Shoal” is an English word that means “school of fish.” It is a contemporary dance piece composed of two autonomous yet complementary pieces, “Etzem Zar” and “Golem.” In “Shoal” (an allegory of the harmonious movement of fish schools), we witness two choreographies performed by women, exploring their own identity.
“Etzem Zar” (foreign body) delves into the phase of recognition between two beings interested in overcoming their natural resistances. The emotions released in this quest will awaken questions about their own reality. “Golem” exposes us to the depths of the soul, to the places where the most intimate thoughts reside, the inherent doubts about the essence of each person. Everything you know or believe you know is stripped away, initiating a search that you may or may not complete. Perhaps one day we will like our portrait, like the rest. But does the rest really like it?
Dana Raz seeks to address this matter through a universal language, that of contemporary dance, which has the ability to move us, stir our emotions, and also make us enjoy through the plasticity of images, movement, and the technical rigor that always permeates her works.
