Obsessed with Light
One night only! See OBSESSED WITH LIGHT at Bantam Cinema with a Q&A from special guests Executive Producer Elizabeth Rodriguez Chandler and Filmmakers Zeva Oelbaum and Sabine Krayenbühl.
OBSESSED WITH LIGHT pulls back the curtain on Loïe Fuller (1862-1928), a wildly original performer and pioneer of modern dance. Creating a dialogue between the past and the present, the documentary delves into the astonishing influence Fuller’s work has on contemporary culture including artists like Taylor Swift, Bill T. Jones, Shakira and William Kentridge, Red Hot Chili Peppers among many others. Fuller developed a completely new kind of spectacle which combined dance, fabric and movement. It’s about a woman who became famous on her own terms – unapologetic about her body type and open about her sexuality.
