Dance First

Think later.

A sweeping biographical portrait of Samuel Beckett that balances his bohemian vitality with the existential weight and melancholy that defined both his life and art.

Parisian bon vivant, World War II Resistance fighter, Nobel Prize-winning playwright, philandering husband and recluse…Samuel Beckett lived a life of many parts. Titled after Beckett’s famous ethos “Dance first, think later”, the film is a sweeping account of the life of this 20th-century icon.
