Six dance films, six choreographed pieces created for the camera, for large screen display. We invite you to a “soirée” composed of an interesting selection of clips, where dance becomes a medium for expressing ideas and emotions.
A Journey with dance is a programme carried out by Núria Font/NU2 'S and created for CoFestival within the frames of the European project Modul-Dance. The presented films are part of a collection called ShortDanceFilms, which is divided into two phases and includes over 60 works, presented in Europe over the past few years. At this occasion our goal is to highlight six pieces from our recent works, selected by public tender and presented at the IDN festival in Barcelona.
