Don't Look at the Finger

Hetain Patel

Screening

Event overview

Screening as part of Sunday Shorts 2 + Q&A with Freddie Opoku-Addaie, Hetain Patel's Don't Look at the Finger joins the bill for Barbican's Dance Umbrella. Driven by the power of the body in motion, this mixed bill reveals artists inspired to create worlds beyond the everyday. 

Don’t Look at the Finger follows a ceremonial ‘fight’ between two protagonists, a man and a woman, in the grand architectural setting of a church. The way the characters communicate is a feat of choreography that combines Kung Fu with signed languages to express a ritualistic coming together.
