Cirque du Soleil: Koozå
Cirque du Soleil Images
Cirque du Soleil presents KOOZA, the story of an innocent and charming
clown who strives to find his own place in the world. KOOZA is a return to
the origins of Cirque du Soleil; it combines two circus traditions -
acrobatic performance and the art of clowning. Between strength and
fragility, laughter and chills, and turmoil and harmony, KOOZA is set in
an electrifying and exotic visual world full of surprises, thrills,
audacity and total involvement. {Back Cover}

- "A Thrilling Ride through Koozå" (46:03) -- Starting in early 2007
and taking us through to the official premiere, "A Thrilling Ride
through Koozå" is everything a documentary should be and more! We
hear, from Director David Shiner, the ideas and thoughts behind what
kind of show he was looking to create (one that brought us back to
Cirque roots - thrills, chills and emotions) and all the work that he
put in to conceiving a show of this caliber. We're taken on the
journey the costume, make-up, and set designers must undergo in order
to bring the spectacle to life. We see the artists as they train for
their parts, as well as settle into every-day Cirque life.
- "Wheel of Death: The Art of Risk" (11:00) is a featurette on the
Wheel of Death and the art of risk one has to master to use it.
Featuring the two talented artists in this act, Carlos Enrique Marin
Loaiza and Jimmy Ibarra Zapata (both from Columbia, South America), we
learn a little about what makes them tick, whether or not they're
afraid when they get on the Wheel of Death (they are and not at the
same time) and what keeps them doing these dangerous stunts night
after night after night.
