Summary
  1. This video documents a project sponsored by the Goethe Institut in which German choreographer Henrietta Horn, director of the Folkwang Dance Studio, worked with dancers from Yaoundé, Cameroon. Interviews with Horn, the dancers and organizers of the project are interspersed with footage of the workshop, exploring issues of cultural relations; the development of contemporary dance in Africa; the struggles of African dancers, particularly women, to achieve professional careers; and differences between African and European dance. The film concludes with excerpts from performances of Solo by Henrietta Horn and Reveil, choreographed by Horn and danced by the workshop participants, at the Abok i Ngoma festival.
