Contemporary dance and jelly wrestling...how original!

Some great imagery...but, that music!!!

The(ir) Blurb...

Powerful piece of fiction (6 minutes) brings a fresh perspective on jelly wrestling to illustrate the love-hate relationship between two women in the context of patriarchy. The Last Round is a work of experimental fiction that uses dance instead of dialogue to bring its story forward, therefore revealing the power and aesthetic potential of what originally was an incongruous element of macho pop culture.
