“Weakness of the Flesh” is a captivating and eerie short film that appears to clone dancer Emma Rosenzweig-Bock, who twists and contorts her body amongst a sea of her own figure. Shot in Los Angeles, the disquieting piece contrasts Rosenzweig-Bock’s graceful sequences with more compulsive, Suspiria-esque jolts as she writhes and pulls her dirt-covered body from the concrete. As she dances, her doubles glitch and freeze in position, sometimes predicting her next move or remaining still in a previous bend.

“Weakness of the Flesh” was produced by Jacob Jonas The Company as part of Films.Dance, a series of 15 short films created during the pandemic that merge dance, film, fashion, and music. You can watch the other performances on Vimeo.
