No new movements were created for this piece. All the movements used in it have already been used, discarded or gone out of fashion. And yet they still contain everything, which made them so appealing in their prime. This piece is simply about reorganizing this material, creating a new context for it in order to make choreographic decisions visible on the one hand and on the other, encourage reflection of the meaning of material in dance.

"Biopics" by Christoph Winkler dedicates two personal small solos to two new young faces in the Berlin dance scene. They come from very different social and professional backgrounds: Travis Steele Sisk studied in Richmond/Virginia before coming to Berlin, because he believes, like many American dancers, that this city is the new "hot spot for the arts”. Dennis Dietrich studied dance at the Palucca School in Dresden and is since trying to make his way as an independent dancer. "Biopics” is based entirely on biographic material. The first-hand reality of dancers says much about contemporary dance; it reveals the exemplary character of the stories.
