"The dancers' movements are almost animal-like. In-between their touching duets, their legs are twitching or they're lying on the floor or they're showing awesome jumps - only flying could top that."

music: Radiohead / Daniel Pemberton
"At the end, when Lillian Stillwell starts
her power saw, you expect a proper chainsaw massacre, instead she
cuts the paper wall and shows us the Reinhardswald. Only Ryan
Mason's search for identity is even more beautiful."
