Featherless

Lintumies

Details

Featherless is an intimate film about 73-year-old Jarmo Rastas and letting go of a life’s work. In ballet, the body is the core of self-image, but as a career ends, identity is tested. The film follows Rastas, Nina Hyvärinen, Tiina Myllymäki, and Michal Krčmář, exploring pain and love for dance. It is a poetic portrayal of who we are without the work that once defined us.
