“What does dancing mean to you?” There are tens of thousands of answers to this question.
Dancing can be a kind of hobbies and a form of aesthetic art. It can also be a means of “telling stories through body language”. Dancing is a body culture and one of the first appeared artistic expressions. However, what is the connotation of dancing beyond the spotlight for a dancer? Is it a flow of power, a balance of the mind and body, or the creative thinking and philosophy of a dancer?
The eight-episode “Beyond Dancing” provides a series of thematic short videos about Hong Kong dancers, which integrate images, dance and music, so that audience can see how dancers pursue their perfect silhouettes on stage, and have a glimpse of how dancing and life intertwine and interact on each other.
“Dancing” can be a word and it can also be the colourful world of a dancer.
