Spark the class’s curiosity before presenting the film. What would they see if they watched a dance performance with eyes half-shut or through a kaleidoscope? If the dancers left a trace, what would it be? After the viewing, invite students to describe the natural and poetic environments that choreography and thermal imaging inspire. This exercise could be combined with Pas de deux by Norman McLaren.
