Mikhail Baryshnikov and White Oak Dance Project perform in excerpts from three works. The dance segments precede Baryshnikov interview clips where he discusses the nature of the company ("gypsies") and the need to approach a variety of choreographers. All sections are separated with black space; overall visual quality is fine.
