SENUM

SENUM was created during 6-days research with 15 dancers as a part of cinema dance laboratory in Belarus.

Building interaction within the group, we led them to several cycles of somatic and emotional transformations.

This allowed us to trace some of the connections that later formed the concept of the film.

We were asking questions such as:
What are we willing to pay for a sense of the present? What is Ego and is it possible for an individual to exist without it?

One of the main features of the filming process is the immersion of dancers in an impromptu state out of their comfort zone.

We researched movement at the junction of emotional imbalance - where the body out of control begins to transmit real feelings and experiences.

For each participant, the laboratory and filming process became an individual immersion, a new meeting with oneself and with others.

We tried to catch the beauty of Now, no matter what the conditions were. SENUM is a visual work with the emotional narrative, which offers air for the interpretation of each individual viewer.

After the release we traced an interesting connection: depending on the energy of the audience, the film's narrative is interpreted in different ways, as if it is empathic, just like a person carrying a variety of experiences.

As far as we know,
Only experience remains.
