Roof Piece on the High Line

2012

Trisha Brown original Roof Piece became an emblem of the 1970s for concentrating the spectator attention on far away rooftops. The 2011 dance in the compressed architectural space of the High Line demand that spectators move to see every dancer. The dance reveals how improvised movement by one dancer, viewed across rooftops, is transformed incrementally by distance and jagged lines of vision. The line of dancers starts South and reverses at half-time.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

Roof Piece on the High Line is an acquired taste at 0.0/10. We recommend checking the trailer and synopsis before diving in.

Not every film is made for everyone. Read the synopsis, watch the trailer — you'll know right away if it's for you.

A 2012 film from an era before CGI overload, with real performances that still hit hard. Best for: genre fans and those open to something unconventional.
