Date:

IONCINEMA.com Top 100 Films

#74. Pina

Director: Wim Wenders
Producers: Gian-Piero Ringel
Distributor: Rights Available.

The Gist: …Through the collaboration of Pina Bausch and Wim Wenders, along with the pioneer of European stereographie Alain Derobe, we will set a new benchmark for 3D. Pina Bausch, artistic director of the TANZTHEATER WUPPERTAL PINA BAUSCH since 1973, has expanded and reformulated the language of dance with her innovative and unique choreography. Her work has become legendary and performances continue to sell out world-wide.….(more)

List Worthy Reasons…Can’t say I’ve cared much for Wenders work, at least not since 99’s Buena Vista Social Club and I don’t care much for modern dance, but after having seen the trailer I’m starting to think that this is one of the rare times where I’m excited for what 3D can do. Looking at the trailer, this looks like a mixture between Fellini and Greenaway’s work, Pina Bausch’s modern dance influence is about to receive the ultimate tribute.

Release Date/Status?: This is receiving a major launch in Berlin before stepping out into 3D movie theaters – it might take a while before a theatrical release.
