Three years prior to Pina's death, she and Tanztheater Wuppertal are trying to trace the phenomenon of their global success. Much of this documentary portrays the revolutionary methods of the greatest German choreographer Pina Bausch: no script, no libretto, no pattern. Everything you see on stage was created in improvisation during rehearsals, during which Pina set no rules, she only asked questions. Every dancer could point the piece in any direction. This is why the film doesn't show only the fragments of finished works, but also images of rehearsals and interviews with the choreographer and her co-travellers.

为期一年，四十位年轻男女每周六到乌帕塔舞蹈剧场，排练碧娜鲍许的经典舞作“交际场”青少年版。这群没有舞蹈经验的男女，除了要克服僵硬的肢体动作之外，更重要的是卸下心防，交出自己，将内心对于两性、爱情、青春的旁徨、期盼与焦虑，透过身体诚实地传递出来。碧娜鲍许大师殒落前的银幕最后身影，是留给每位舞迷的无限怀念。
