David Eugene Edwards

In 2004 Wim Vandekeybus shot a 52-minute feature based on his successful performance Blush. Carried by the music of David Eugene Edwards and Woven Hand and with texts by the Flemish author Peter Verhelst, Blush is a dazzling voyage swinging between the heavenly landscapes of Corsica and the slummiest depths of Brussels. It is an exploration of the savage subconscious, of mythical forests, of conflicting instincts, of imagination, where the body has reasons unknown to the mind. In dance sequences of attraction, confrontation and repulsion the performers take on animal metamorphoses…

A cinematographic adaptation of the performance "Puur", from Ultima Vez/Wim Vandekeybus.

Contains great live performances and rare off-stage footage to give a real sense of what Sixteen Horsepower stood for as a live band. The beautiful registration by the RTBF of the 2002 concert at 'Le Cirque Royal' - Belgium on disc 1. On disc 2 a compilation of different documents: the 1996 Rockpalast show in Germany, a rehearsal in David's hometown Denver, an impression of the last US-tour in 2004, ...and finally a unique souvenir of what would turn out to be their last concert ever, July 17th 2004, Antwerp, Belgium.
