Blum – Wild Things Happen in Stillness

Description

**From the Silence**
"Am I dreaming or already living?" Daughters and granddaughters ask. Based on personal conversations and stories from their own mothers, grandmothers, and other female* reference persons, a multifaceted dialogue between past and present emerges on stage. Words, dreams, and life realities of women* from different generations become movements in "Blum – Wild Things Happen in Stillness" that tell much about realized and unfulfilled life plans, social boundaries, resilience, and self-determination. The truly important, sometimes wild things need time to bloom. Everything left unsaid – still waters run deep – inscribes itself into the body and sometimes lasts for generations until it finds its way onto the stage of life. **Choreography of "Blum – Wild Things Happen in Stillness"**
The dance ensemble Moving Mountains by Helena Amor, Elina Kim, Harumi Mumenthaler, Alessandra Hitz, and Ellen Wolf from Graubünden and Bern combines organic movement qualities of contemporary dance with the energy and expressiveness of various street dance styles. The dancers each bring their own movement language, creating a polyphonic, physical dialogue that highlights the complexity of the personal interviews. The movements reflect inner processes such as resistance, transformation, and liberation and become physical manifestations of memories, dreams, and emotions.
