- Synopsis:
- A voyeuristic, behind-the-scenes look as a choreographer and his team go through the process of auditions, rehearsals and eventually a premiere of the dance piece Anima Ardens. The journey reveals internal artistic conflicts between the dancers and their personal challenges during the several months of creating the performance. Close ups of male skin and non-stop nudity show how vulnerable these men can be within the non-existent borders of artistic freedom. An unabashed celebration of movement and the male body.

Lots of flesh but less meaning - Bare review by MD
After watching a couple of 'dance' movies, I've come to the conclusion that they're pointless and very boring.
Modern dance isn't totally silly like classical ballet, but has no overall shape and little coherence apart from a few abstract ideas. The dancers in the film keep asking the director what it's meant to be about.
The movement is attractive but essentially meaningless and the nudity rapidly becomes unremarkable like wallpaper. One for the determined only.

Supremely dull - Bare review by SC
I only managed to watch the first half an hour at which point I could no longer watch the director working with his cast. Maybe the production which came out of this work made it all worthwhile, but I'm not unhappy I'll never find out.
