SOMA, 10min., UK
Directed by Arturo Bandinelli
SOMA is an experimental film that uses movement and dance as its primary medium for story-telling. A contemporary myth on the genesis of the human body, the piece unfolds in two parallel dimensions: an infinite black hole where entities exist outside linear space and time; and a labyrinthine house where an uncanny gathering is taking place. As the free-associative, dreamlike narrative unfolds, different characters go through visceral experiences of pleasure, enchantment, pain and death.

SWEET HONEY, 5min, UK

MODUS H20, 4min,. Germany
Directed by Na Dine
With the stylistic devices of contemporary dance and a deconstructed flamenco, the aggregate states of water and their effects on people and the environment are explored. A flamenco typical train dress is changed and recreated. The rhythm of flamenco is taken out of context and used for new scenarios. Immersed in blue underwater light, classic flamenco meets contemporary dance and experimental electronic music.

THE REFLECTION OF FRANCISCA NEWMAN, 15min., USA

RUNT, 4min., UK
Directed by Bess Noakes-Kettel, Brendan Void
We follow the journey of a young woman and her conflicting emotions and sense of impending demise as she interacts with four other ‘masked’ and seemingly predatory creatures in the wilderness. Expressing themselves through interactive dance and movement as they move through beach and woodland areas, our protagonist appears bare faced and ‘unmasked’: both brave and vulnerable in aesthetic contrast to the other ensemble members who appear in human form and demonstrate human athletic prowess and attributes, but retain anonymity behind their wolf masks.

GNDR, 9min,. USA
Directed by Lucas Ruderman
The story of Gender, in much of early World Mysticism, begins with the creation of the human as one multi-gendered being, severed by divine decree. Using an intensely dramatic, archetypal dance vocabulary that includes the use of hand-designed theater masks, GNDR, examines the historical and contemporary fallout of this myth, as two individuals struggle to reclaim original wholeness in a dance fraught with desire, repulsion, and yearning. Ultimately, the subtle question is posed: Who are we beyond our bodies? Who are we, really?
