...Pina

 Today I've seen this movie about Pina Baush, directed by Wim Wenders. It's really a masterpiece, I guess Pina would love it. I've chosen this clip among many others for the scene the dancer goes bending down from chairs, and says, in a very touching moment, she would like to offer Pina that moment of lightness, a sensation of weightlessness. 

Highly recommended.
