Situating Artistic Practice and Navigating the Frame with Tanin Torabi

Join us after Tanin’s film IN PLAIN SIGHT plays in our X Marks the Spot screening for an intimate conversation with the filmmaker.

Tanin’s film BEYOND THE FRAMES screened at the very first F-O-R-M in 2016. She has since gone on to create five more films, premiering her works at more than one hundred festivals and receiving over 30 awards to date. Tanin speaks to her experience of living in Tehran, Iran where dance is illegal, and how these barriers and restrictions have become sources of inspiration for her. Her talk expands on her journey in discovering dance filmmaking, and how this stemmed out of a necessity to share her movements beyond her home country of Iran.

This talk will not be recorded or available for viewing after the live event.
