Falling Upright Into Place, 2007, USA, 6 min
Produced and Directed by Stephanie Kobes
Choreography and Dancing by Stephanie Kobes
Music Performed by Arvo Part
This short film explores how one sometimes struggles and fights against gravity and oneself to find the place where she belongs. On this explorative journey, many also travel with bottled-up emotions that may be kept hidden and never shared, but which very much influence the way one lives her life. It is making a way in this world ... it is finding a way to survive, it is finding a way to be free ... it is "Falling Upright Into Place."
