What is beauty? In China, nakedness is considered superficial and unattractive, while sex is a subject of embarrassment and absolute taboo in public. Between east and west still lies a cultural chasm that is beyond politics, race and rhetoric.

Bridging the gap is Shanghai Beauty, a creation commissioned by the House of the World Cultures, Berlin and developed as a collaboration between China's first independent dance ensemble, Jin Xing Dance Theatre Shanghai, and the German dance company Rubato.
