Program Note

In her 20s, Gi-suk is a modern dancer. Her daily life, narrated by her, unfolds like a Möbius strip. The surrounding scenery, rehearsals, and practice room people preparing for performances, and the routines continuing in her own space, all blend together. Amid the endlessly repetitive life, she seeks liberation as an independent woman, challenging the era's demand for submissive female ideals. (Martin LEE)
