Summary/Abstract: In the account of the International Modern Dance Festival KRoki in Cracow (17-25 May 2015) Tomasz Fryzeł focuses on three performances: Mistral by Susanne Linke and Koffi Kôko, Tyran(s) by the group Dame de Pic, Eyes in the colours of the rain by the RootlesRoot Dance Company and What the body does not remember by the group Ultima Vez. The author points out that the performances shown during the festival used multiple voices to comment on the questions of the sacred and lay character of art and the subject of power and domination in interpersonal relationships. He also emphasises the fact that most performances were based on intense encounters between strong artistic personalities.
