Dancers and choreographers Eiko & Koma, partners for 40 years, discuss their Retrospective Project (2009–2012), which documents their performance and site-specific works over several decades. They show documentary videos created for the project, including Dancing in Water: the Making of River (2009), The Retrospective Project (2009), and Naked: A Gallery View (2010). Eiko & Koma are known for groundbreaking dance works that stretch the boundaries of the art form. Their subjects are elemental; their message is blunt yet compassionate. Eiko & Koma have long experimented with modes of presentation other than theatrical, performing in museum galleries, a graveyard, a river, and a trailer.
