Short films 1: Resistance and memory

Eight short films interweave personal stories, political realities and dance visions. From a lost bird in Brazil to a rebellious gesture in Lebanon, from poetic encounters on trains and street scenes to memories of work, pain and female self-determination - the films show dance as an expression of resistance, memory and hope.
