The Art of Dance

The Art of Dance: A Journey Into Movement is an immersive cinematic experience that takes you on a journey around the world to discover the answer to What Moves You? Unprecedented, this documentary experience traces the evolutionary story of dance and music as a cultural, social, and spiritual movement from traditional Indigenous, First Nations, Native and African cultures connecting through to present-day street and popular forms.

These artisans are masters of their form, each taking us into their own world, showing us the passion, devotion, and practice of their discipline. They reveal their particular challenges and struggles while peeling back the social and historical knowledge of their art form as only an insider can. With inspired and innovative movement, curated music, rare archival footage, intimate cinema verite', and lush cinematography, visually bold and compelling high stakes stories are told that are both personal and epic in scale.
