Catch Me // Upswing

Catch me // Upswing Film

friday 20th november // 6pm-6.45pm

Catch Me is an intimate and surprising take on age, race and gender.

A duet – at a distance – between an older woman and younger man negotiating a tower of chairs while confronting literal and metaphorical barriers. Two bodies discover unexpected connections whilst never quite reaching each other.

Part installation and part performance – a poetic, contemplative yet joyful mix of dance, acrobatics and distanced companionship, Catch Me asks how we see each other and who we value.

Filmed for the Newham Unlocked online festival in August, this beautifully edited film of Catch Me brings the viewer into the heart of this intimate relationship.

Catch Me is timely, with a refreshing vulnerability that plays to the novelty of touch after months of enforced distance. Encouraged to reflect on what it means to be important to someone, this piece finds its home within the basic hunger for human connection... Georgia Howlett, The Upcoming
