Dance-films are liquid. They flow between the categories of ‘dance’ and ‘film’. The camera reveals new aspects of the body, rhythm and movement to dancers. On the other hand, dance expands the meaning of ‘performance’ in film. The tensions in the hyphenation of the two have resulted in a new language capable of complex articulations.
'Manifest’ is the first dance-film festival in India that is onsite and is publishing an open call for submissions. Created by AuroApaar-an artist-run, non-profit arts centre in rural South India, this pioneering event aims to catalyse the explosion of the dance-film genre in India and intensify trans-national artistic dialogue.
Structure : 4 day offline event. Screenings will be followed by audience Q&A and interactions with artists.
The entries will be curated and viewing restricted to those who have registered for the event.
Where: Alliance Francaise de Pondicherry, India
What : fiction dance films excluding documentaries and recordings of performance.
