This chapter is about Reut. She is a dancer with two kids that lives in the countryside of Israel.Reut is experiencing being a mother much like dancing on an endless metronome sound. She knows that as long as she keeps on moving her kids will just have to tag along. Sometimes the children will initiate the movement and other times they will do whatever they can to interfere with it. But this steady and accurate rhythm will support a solid ground from which every one in the family can, every now and then, burst into free and fearless dance. the movie was presented at Cinedans Festival 2021.

This chapter is about Reut.
It was created in the time of the epidemic in the heart of the lockdown when we were all obliged to stay at home. my kids were young and very dependent. my days were designed by the requests of my children like they were the choreographer and i was a very devoted dancer. every movement in this choreography is a response to a word/sound/ sentence. While i keep responding a dance was created.

this chapter is about Sharon. She is living, breathing, and creating dance. For Sharon movement is the comfort zone. It's where she feels stable. with dance she can consistently conduct her life. Motherhood, on the other hand, is everything but stability. You should expect the unexpected. You can prepare and plan ahead but the real conductor is your child. Exactly there - in this fragile place of loosing control all the beauty hides.
