Kind.ness
SHORT MOVIE, STORYTELLING
The beginning “Kind” refers to both the German and the English word (you are (not) my kind) and describes the relationship to our “inner child/ conflict”. The back and forth, the acceptance and repression. Although the solution is so simple: Kindness.
A short film about the phases of an anxiety disorder and the associated process that we go through with our "inner child". This inner conflict is told through dancing.
As soon as you feel identified with your fears, you identify with your emotions. You feel misunderstood and alone. Dancing is based on emotions, so it offers itself as a form of expression in which one shows oneself open and vulnerable without really having to talk about it. As a means of communication, dancing offers much more room for interpretation in order to find one's own story in it and thus to feel more easily identified and understood.
