"Arch of Repose shot beach-side is a rushing dream of a film based upon a concert work from

Hedwig Dances' bold interdisciplinary collaborations combine poetic choreography with sculptural artifacts, projected images and
haunting original music. The resulting dances resonate with complexity and depth and provoke emotion, connection and wonder.
