Tampopo Redux
Mistaya Hemingway, Alan Kohl
Welcome to the kitchen of Tampopo Redux, an alternate reality where movement and taste come together. Here, contact and the taste for foods inspire dance. Six dancers explore the sensory, tactile, and sometimes humorous relationship between the body and food. Inspired by the 1980s Japanese cult film classic Tampopo, this short dance film is an experiment with collaborative improvisation among the dancers, the camera, and viewers. An explosion of colours and sensuality!
