Louise Lecavalier: In Motion

Pathbreaking and playful, Louise Lecavalier revolutionized the art of dance in the 1980s working with Montreal's Édouard Lock and the La La La Human Steps troupe, followed by a stint with David Bowie, and is now a world-renowned choreographer. This spellbinding documentary gives Lecavalier’s true method of communication - movement - valuable screen time, and her frenzied, athletic performances amaze and enchant. Archival footage and pithy interviews fill in the picture of a 58-year-old mother of two teenagers still asking questions, pushing limits, and leaving audiences in awe.
