This appears to be a trailer for a documentary about Etienne Decroux, featuring him and his students. I have seen full length footage of some of the performances featured. For those of you unfamiliar with corporeal mime or its possibilites beyond white face and striped clothing, I suggest you take a gander:

    My teacher played me videos of some of these performances which I believe were filmed not much later than 1960 when I first began working with him. It's a pity that the music on the trailer is very different than the music that Decroux used... as much of the music was composed for the pieces themselves.
