In WIM, documentary filmmaker Lut Vandekeybus takes us into the energetic, poetic and complex universe of her brother, the acclaimed choreographer and director Wim Vandekeybus. A captivating film about a distinguished career and intense life. Lut Vandekeybus uses an abundance of unpublished archive material, unique home videos and in-depth interviews to deliver an inspired portrait of her brother's impressive career.

Performer, choreographer and director Wim Vandekeybus is a man of many families. He grew up surrounded by brothers and sisters. Wim Vandekeybus began his career with Jan Fabre, before soon going on to establish his own company, Ultima Vez. His first show, What the Body Does Not Remember (1987), grew into an international success and won high acclaim for its pioneering language of dance. It marked the start of a career that put both the company and Flemish dance on the world map.

This is a unique opportunity to witness the choreographic process of Wim Vandekeybus from the perspective of an insider and enter into a discussion with Luke Murphy on his experiences working with the highly acclaimed artist. The conversation will be of interest to creators across all artforms, exploring what it takes to ambitious work collaboratively.
