Glanz & Widerstand - Eine Ballett-Performance in der Recherchephase | Dokumentale 2025

In the organizer's words:

Splendor & Resistance
An immersive ballet research by the Berlin Ballet Company & The Good Media Network.

Marlene Dietrich - diva, rebel, style icon.
A danced approach to Marlene's life - its contradictions, beauty & attitude, glamor & saying no.

Four scenes. Inside & outside. Dance, film, voice, archive material.
In the shared movement, the separation between performer and audience disappears.

This is not a classical piece. This is a performance in the rough - bold, fluid, authentic.

A new format in the making. Become part of the research audience and thus an essential part of this artistic journey.

The finale: an open-air film screening in the former BUFA studio - now Atelier Gardens - exactly where Marlene herself once stood in front of the camera.

Be there when history moves and new things are created.
