For two years, filmmaker Bob Hammel followed six dancers around the
globe, observing the creation of six very personalized solos. All
were recipients of a prestigious award, the McKnight Fellowship in
Dance, which made these exciting commissioned solos possible. SOLO: 1
X 2 is a documentary film that reveals the dedication, artistry and
perseverance of these incredible dance artists. It captures the
intense partnership between dancer and choreographer in all that it is
– surprising, exhilarating, edgy, trepidatious and life-changing. Visit
