Hetain Patel hosts an evening of his film works with composer and collaborator Amy May for the Asia Society Triennial. 

Don't Look, an event livestreamed from Genesis Cinema in London, will feature Don't Look at the Finger (2017) alongside behind the scenes anecdotes and the world premiere of new music for Patel's work God is DJ, composed by Amy May.

Don’t Look at the Finger follows a ceremonial ‘fight’ between two protagonists, a man and a woman, in the grand architectural setting of a church. The way the characters communicate is a feat of choreography that combines Kung Fu with signed languages to express a ritualistic coming together. 

Don't Look at the Finger (2017) was commissioned by Film and Video Umbrella with Manchester Art Gallery and QUAD. Supported by Arts Council England. Initial research supported by Jerwood Choreographic Research Project.
