Dutch National Ballet / Junior Company
Music for a piece by choreographer Rutkay Özpinar, created for the young talents of the Junior Company of the Dutch National Ballet.
About
In Dark Matter, Rutkay explores the inner struggle of people dealing with trauma. He gives shape to the uncertain, undefined feeling that lingers within as a result. Can dance play a role in the process of coping with it?
