Figuring Age is a short film which reveals three elderly dancers in their homes: Irén Preisich, Éva E. Kovács and Ágnes Roboz –101, 96 and 90 years old respectively–, were once part of the early development of modern dance in Hungary. The stillness of their rooms, filled with personal objects and memories becomes a poignant scenographic backdrop for their last performances on screen.
Presented by Aerowaves in co-operation with the Goethe-Institut Ireland.
The film will be shown in a continuous loop in the Return Gallery.
