Lake Enchanto - Short Film

Lake Enchanto the location of a 1930 fairyland resort in the Malibu hills where a Kim West installation and the Heidi Duckler Dance theatre perform a one-time throwback performance to that distant time.

As the sun dips below the trees at Peter Strauss Ranch, shadows elongate. When vintage bathing suit-clad dancers propel through the space, for a moment it ceases to be 2017. Then the ritual begins, and into the “lake” the dancers go, dragging with them their memories, and, literally, setting them ablaze.
