Kazuo Ohno - I Dance Into the Light - 2004 - Peter Sempel




Released in 2004
Directed by Peter Sempel

Storyline: "Kazuo Ohno" is a documentary about the eponymous 97-year-old dancer, Co-founder and legend of Butoh dance. Besides Kazuo, there are two other people who were crucial to this project: his son Yoshito, who almost always accompanied his father, as a speaker, fellow dancers, organizers and helpers, and - as a nice contrast: the young student of Kazuo Tanya Khabarowa which is now celebrated with her dance group from St. Petersburg Derevo. Kazuo once said: "I'm an old horse with young heart."
