An improvisation by dancer Cynthia Loemij to the sound of Eugène Ysaÿe's 3 sonatas for solo violin. In a continuous sway, Boer follows the body's movements until interrupted by the physical limit of a 16mm film reel, which lasts three minutes. Left in the dark but guided by sounds, the viewer is challenged - just like the dancer - to fill the empty spaces in an expansive exercise of memory.
