THE VERY EYE OF NIGHT

Dancers, shown in photographic negative, perform a series of ballet moves, solos, pas de deux, larger groupings. The dancers glide and rotate untroubled by gravity against a slowly changing starfield background. Their movements are accompanied by music scored for a small ensemble of woodwind and percussion.

You can watch The Very Eye of Night on Criterion Channel. The Very Eye of Night is currently available for streaming in the United States.
