Pina (Wim Wenders, 2011)

8/10
A very different kind of documentary by Wim Wenders, featuring some of the best, most tasteful use of 3D I've ever seen. The film is comprised of performances from Pina Bausch's dance troupe of her pieces, as well as the recollections of Pina by the troupe members. What slowly and subtlety emerges is a film about dedication and love. The film is not noisily ecstatic and all the better for it, and immensely enjoyable in the end.
