The text reflects on the poetic language of dance, the process of creating the film While the leaves fall... (2015) focusing the Effort on the Laban/Bartenieff Movement Analysis System and observing how the combinations of movement quality factors and their dynamic variations affected the script, editing and body preparation of the characters. The film investigates how movement patterns and psychological profiles, studied by Dr. Judith Kestenberg (1910-1999), are connected to Rudolf Laban's Theory of Efforts (1879-1958) and the Fundamentals Principles of Movement by Irmgard Bartenieff (1900-1981). Inspired by the work of french-speaking writer and filmmaker Marguerite Duras (1914-1996), the film highlights characters who have in common traces of madness, abandonment, boredom and pain.
