Mikhail Baryshnikov rehearses "Motorcade" and "Going Away Party" with White Oak Dance Project. There are multiple takes, perhaps on different days, with a variety of guests and even a dog visible in the rehearsal space. Although conscious of being filmed - choreographer Mark Morris looks directly into the camera - and photographed, the atmosphere is relaxed. The female photographer referred to as "Annie" is Annie Leibovitz.
