Street dancing meets philosophy in this choreographic critique of hip-hop. Beltrão got his start as a teenage hip-hop dancer in Rio clubs -- and the performers in H2-2005 are street dancers he recruited from all over Brazil. Today, Beltrão dedicates himself to analyzing dance – even deconstructing it -- in all its facets. The time has come, he asserts, to “put hip-hop in crisis...I am convinced we can discover new aesthetics.”
