Through dancing you can see somebody’s personality. Six women are dancing one by one on music they have selected themselves: music they like, music which brings up emotions in them. The women wear headphones, so the spectator barely hears the music. The focus is totally on the women and their moves. In the end they dance together and the individuality of the woman is merged by the solidarity of the group.
