Young-jun Tak Wish You a Lovely Sunday
For this filmic work, two choreographers and two dancers were paired up to create a new choreography, for the church Kirche am Südstern and the queer club SchwuZ in Berlin respectively. After rehearsals and the choreographies were completed, their designated venues were swapped. The film creates a moving and intimate view of the dancers’ bodies, negotiating the new architectural setting and ambiance. Through the continuous interlacing of scenes from the two distinct architectures and community spaces, the film, shot during the pandemic, suggests their connections as ritual spaces offering comfort to the bodies and minds of visitors.
