Sanctuary

ALL BODIES DANCE PROJECT, CANADA
Emerging Category

Originally created as a live, site-specific performance, Sanctuary is a dance re-imagined for the camera. The film features two bodies searching for calm inside the sounds and sights of an urban landscape. Harmanie and Rianne ask the question inside and outside their bodies: how can we create a sanctuary for an embodied experience in a public space? How does dance and embodiment change this public scene? And how are our bodies affected by the public gaze and by one another?

An audio-described version of Sanctuary will also play as part of the Monday screening.

Artists: Harmanie Rose, Rianne Svelnis, Martin Borden

READY-TO-ASSEMBLE

Denise Solleza, Canada
Emerging Category

READY-TO-ASSEMBLE is a humourous take on ready-to-assemble furniture through the avenues of dance and the current ASMR internet trend.

Artists: Lauren Runions, Justin Wotherspoon, Denise Solleza

21st Century Egg

KAYLEE LOUIE, CANADA
Youth Category

A short film featuring the duality of a single dancer and a lonely egg. With dance movement being inspired by the mild sufferings we find in our everyday lives, co-directors Josh Lam and Kaylee Louie pair up to showcase the unusual relationship between a moving body in turmoil to an egg that is being tossed, flipped, fried, and sometimes forgotten.
