Atrophy and the Fear of Fading (2010)
Dance, imagery, poetry and music as metaphors for the history of a country: its movements struggling for freedom and its heritage are brilliantly brought into dialogue through a fascinating kaleidoscope that blends archive images and contemporary performance. A work under the banner of modernity in its form and in its questioning: is the body of an individual similar to that of a country?

Simply Perfect
It is not deep, but it is fun to watch. It does have a bit more of an edge to it than other similar films.
It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.
By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
