Let's Dance

Let’s Dance! examines how Israel, despite its reputation as a militaristic and “macho” society, became a recognized world leader in Modern Dance, and formed part of its historical development. Through spectacular pieces of video-dance, rich archive material, interviews, and visual demonstrations, the film follows the circumstances that made Israeli Modern Dance one of the greatest local cultural achievements to date. 

It also examines the interrelation between two phenomena of the 20^th century – Modern Dance (especially German Modern Dance) and Zionism (the evolution of the Israeli society). Let’s Dance looks at the joint effort exerted by these two movements to disconnect from the bonds of tradition and to create a new and revolutionary identity which stands for simplicity and social involvement.
