    • A visually striking portrait of acclaimed choreographer Jiří Kylián and his lifelong muse, Sabine Kupferberg. The film is a personal reflection on art, love, and the passage of time.

Set against the breathtaking landscape of Terschelling, the film parallels the cycles of nature and human life.
