Sixteen students from Expanded Contemporary Dance at the Academy of Theatre and Dance in Amsterdam defy gravity with vertical dance, together with and building on the research of Ropes Aligned (Suzanne de Bekker and Natasja Bode) and Isabel Cordeiro. Inspired by the first attempts to understand gravity dating back to the Greek philosopher Aristotle (384-322 BC, the universe is conveniently beneath his feet), the students, floating, defying gravity, establish new relationships between their bodies and the elements. Moving away from Aristotle's geocentric view of the universe, the students venture into an unknown space and rebuild/redefine this space by giving it their own interpretation: "And then it will be."
