These films show the potential of storytelling in dance films, which dialogues are not the chief way of expression. We tend to follow the plot when we watch movies and drama. The story of a dance film may not be the plot, but more like an emotion that emerges at the moment. Often being abstract but with a story running in the background, the dancers thrive amongst the dramatic moments.

These are works that document the landscape and the bodies there. It’s extraordinary how we could experience the sceneries without actually visiting the location. And once it’s in a dance film, the scenery seems fictional and mysterious. The landscape that you see in your daily life could be transformed into a completely different scenery with the presence of dancers.

ハイウェイ #1（6’42）
Featuring a Dance Film Director: Louise Narboni (France) Wed 9 SEP 9:00〜12:00 P.M. JST (+UTC9)
Dance films of glances and atmosphere. The elegant use of space, camerawork that makes us think we breathe the same air at the location, the glances observing each other’s personality, the fantasy that slightly blends with reality... before you know it, you are drawn into the world of Louise Narboni. This year's screening features two works by the up-and-coming filmmaker Louise Narboni, the director of “The Great Ghost” (choreography by Yoann Bourgeois) screened at the International Dance Film Festival 2019 in Spiral Hall and also aired in Japanese television.
Metamorphosis, the idea of becoming something else, is an important element of dance expression. In the ancient folk dances still existing throughout the world, the dancers become birds, dragons, fire and many more… Dancers express the dignity of nature. The four films that will be screened has not forgotten the dignity of nature in our time. With our limitless imagination, our bodies could transform into anything.
The film itself dances… what does that mean? These are works that use filming and editing techniques along with bodily expressions to document people’s internal states. Sometimes, you could even feel objects dancing. The four films presented here have a careful perspective on physical phenomena. These films stand still and wait for the slightest change to occur so as not to miss it.
