70 min, Australia 2017
Director: Amiel Courtin-Wilson

The film offers a meeting between an 88-year-old American pianist and a 72-year-old Japanese choreographer and dancer. Together they create magical moments in this lingeringly beautiful chamber game. In Taylor's apartment, an elegant, wordless conversation unfolds between two masters.
