★★★★ " A filmy mirror duet about identity and the mystery behind reality..."

reviews
¨...Fortunately, the Cameroon-born Wubkje Kuindersma saves this talent program with a exquisite mirror duet about identity and the mystery behind reality. In Doubleyou, two physically similar men stare in the face of a wall projection to the painting Reproduction Prohibited by the surrealist painter René Magritte: a man looks at his back. Then Diego Tortelli and Kevin Quinaou play a sophisticated game. You can see a philosophical dance duet about the mystery of the reflection of reality.¨ (translated from Dutch)

¨..Doubleyou by Wubkje Kuindersma does have that completeness. The starting point is the painting La réproduction interdite by Magritte: the man who looks in the mirror who does not look at him, but from whom you again see the back of his head. At the beginning one of the men is looking at the picture with a list in his hand. Then the dance begins. In various light circles, Diego Tortelli and Kevin Quinaou take over their wide movements. They look alike, which is of course the intention in this game of mirroring, but not in accordance with the laws of optics. In the projected sentences there is always a paradox: Think What Is Not Spoken, Trust Waits In Nasty Spaces, To Win I Now Surrender. Take the initial letters and you will get TWINS. These twins come apart from mirroring: the men seek each other up and come apart. Doubleyou is an elegant, powerful male duet and the strong conclusion of a quartet of new choreographies.¨ (translated from dutch)
