Overview

• Binoche presented the feature at the San Sebastián Festival as her first film built from long-shelved footage of the stage work In-I.
• The documentary assembles rehearsal tapes and recordings of the final seven performances that were stored for 15 years before a producer prompted their revival.
• It pairs an inside view of the creative process with the full stage piece blending theatre and contemporary dance.
• Binoche says Robert Redford urged her in New York to turn the show into a film, a push that guided the project’s eventual shape.
• The film includes candid reflections on violent experiences that Binoche and Akram Khan say drove the work’s narrative, and it screened in the festival’s Official Selection out of competition.
