Can You See Me Flying?

Introduces Terry Sendgraff, the 54 year-old recipient of the 1989 Isadora Duncan Dance Award, who after undergoing a mastectomy and a second bout of breast cancer, created the art of Motivity, an innovative synthesis of dance, voice, improvisation, choreography and movement on trapezes. Profiles Sendgraff's career and contributions as a choreographer, performer and teacher. Features several performances, including Hovering, in which she balances nearly nude on a bungee cord to demystify her mastectomy and to testify to her ability to live creatively even as she struggles with cancer.
