Interview - International Festival: SWEAT - The Movie

SWEAT research Workshop is one of those terms used in such a wide sense that it has lost any meaning. International Festival seems to make it even more complicated to pin point its meaning?

SWEAT – Synopsis and Character outline – first draft

SWEAT is heat, summer and sensuality. It’s hard work, wet hair and hot nights of dancing.

Twelve young dance talents from the whole world arrive in the summery city of Vienna to participate in a month-long workshop. During four weeks, coinciding with four loosely laid-out episodes, the group, accompanied by a particularly weird collection of teachers, experience adventures that force them to reconsider their views on honesty, friendship, tragedy and happiness.
