"The anguish of the earth absolves our eyes
Till beauty shines in all that we can see.
War is our scourge; yet war has made us wise
And, fighting for our freedom, we are free..."

-Siegfried Sassoon-

Music by Hans Zimmer & Klimek(J).

- Very nice was the choreography of Altea Nuñez 'Absolutio' . It's a nice challenge to work with these young dancers. She lets you look at motion with a lot of nuances, movement that involves strength and tension. The soundscape of sound artist Hans Zimmer creeps under the skin and sometimes creates an intriguing atmosphere. Altea Nuñez has studied the music composition thoroughly. The dancers move in group as one body in an impressive sonorous environment. A choreography with ‘pure blood’ danced as driving force -.
