September 27 - Dance films from around the world.
-- Real Boy, from the United States, directed by Douglas Rosenberg. With choreography and performance by Sean Curran, Real Boy is a dance for camera inspired by the Pinocchio story of Italian author Carlos Collodi.
-- Dom Svobode, from Slovenia, directed by Saso Podgorek and choreographed by Iztok Kovak. In the post-industrial Slovenian town of Trbovlje, a company of dancers sets out to overcome the gravity of a vertical stone wall.
-- Rest in Peace, from Holland, directed by Annick Vroom, with choreography and
performance by the Hans Hof Ensemble. Recipient of the Best in Festival Award at Dance Films Association's Dance On Camera Festival, 2000. The wordless narrative follows the unraveling order of the lives of four bereaved young people in the home of their deceased parents.
-- Le P'Tit Bal, from France, by the prolific French choreographer Philippe Decoufle. A couple enacts the infectiously nostalgic lyrics of "C'etait Bien" with a meticulously timed gestural language.
-- Wiped, from the Netherlands, by director/choreographer Hans Beenhaaker. Jury winner at the Dance Films Association's Dance on Screen Festival, 2001. The extraordinarily paced film sets up a game between fantasy and reality that is never resolved.
-- Sure, from Australia, choreographed and directed by Tracie Mitchell. The work comments on the journey forward in life, and the way we select pathways and make choices.
-- Cornered, from Canada, produced, directed and choreographed by Michael Downing. This vertiginous black-and-white film redefines gravity as an attractive force of right angles.
