Body Rhythm (2000)

The Radar read

A quieter title still finding its audience, though the rating rests on a thin sample, so treat it as provisional.

Synopsis

A fluid dance of line, form, and colour, Body Rhythm celebrates movement and life--a stretching, turning, tumbling, tribute to the human form. Animator Wayne Traudt creates a striking visual rendition of renowned Qawwali singer Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan's vocals as he performs 'Tracery,' composed by Michael Brooks. As Fateh Ali Khan's voice performs agile pyrotechnics, Traudt invents a visual experience to match. Together, the music and the animation resonate. The body movements echo the phrasing of the music with grace, evoking life and breath, the universal rhythms to which we all dance.

Radar blends quality, momentum and freshness into one “what to watch now” number — so a great older film can sit lower than a rising new release. The Quality signal above is the time-neutral rating, which is why an acclaimed classic keeps a high quality score even when its Radar number is lower. Radar outputs are editorial algorithmic recommendations, not objective facts, and may change as signals update. A Radar score is not the same as a TMDB, IMDb or critic rating.
