Jiří Kylián made the solo 'Double You' for Gary Chryst. An intimate solo in which the viewer finds himself looking inside the soul of a man who is trying to organize his life experience, but often fails to find a grip. Small, isolated movements in head, fingers and shoulders, or even back muscles tell stories of disappointment and desires, swift dribbles and fast-moving legs, static poses, and wildly moving arms show of power and despair.
