Quell is the shared history and present
of two souls, distilled into a moment, suspended in space and time. It is a window into a love that has turned sour, where care has turned into a smothering, intense dependency. We watch as tenderness becomes something violent, and two souls struggle between the urge to escape, and the allure of surrendering to a familiar loop of toxic patterns.

A man and a woman are exploring closeness – and the ambiguity of its different aspects. Bang is a dance movie about the difficult search of intimacy in a mechanical and ineffective choreographic structure.
