‘Wave' - a psychedelic, immersive dance film, in which a dancer's body is manipulated in time through the use of repetition, delay and the repositioning of frames. This creates a choreography in which the history of a movement forms a new kind of organism.

A group choreography performed solo.

Every movement affects the overall shape of the group. The dancer's past transforms into being its direct shadow.
'Wave' will be a film that, due to the use of 360° - 3D, is more than a film that can be viewed from a distance. The use of VR gives an opportunity for the viewer to be an unnoticed observer who is visually in control of time and can act as a director of the movements and choreography.
An extra dimension is added through the use of digital manipulation, which can evoke emotions such as e.g. claustrophobia, euphoria or surprise.
