Pina is a 2011 German 3D documentary film directed by Wim Wenders, about German dancer and choreographer Pina Bausch. The film premiered at the 61st Berlin International Film Festival, on 13 February 2011.

Production

On 30 June 2009, during the preparation for the film, Bausch died unexpectedly, so Wenders cancelled the project, but the dancers of Bausch's company, Tanztheater Wuppertal, convinced him to proceed as planned, as a way of memorializing Bausch and some of her choreography.
