Dancing with Time (Tanz mit der Zeit) is a film about the autobiography Dance Theater Zeit – tanzen seit 1927 by Heike Hennig.[1]
Plot
Four dancers, nearing their eighties, take up the challenge of Heike Hennig to return to the stage in Leipzig’s opera house. Ursula Cain, Christa Franze, Siegfried Prölß and Horst Dittmann have been leading members of the Ballet of the Oper Leipzig. A performance of emotional richness combined with the stories of their lives, from Mary Wigman, Gret Palucca to Heike Hennig. Nothing about them is old, except their age.
