Inaugurated in 2016, ROLLOUT is a biennial dance film festival in Macao. The third edition of ROLLOUT Dance Film Festival received more than 1100 submissions from 89 countries and regions, among which 28 award contest films and 87 official selection films were chosen. Together with other quality films around the world chosen by the curators and the overseas selections recommended by the guest curators, these dance films will be screened at different venues in Macao over a period of three weeks. Some of the selections will also be screened online to reach a wider global audience. In addition to screenings, satellite events will be hosted to connect and exchange with our network partners, looking for co-contributions and co-enrichment in the sphere of dance film. Within the context of the Festival, the exciting contest ‘#Rolling48Challenge” will be open for global submissions online to boost both the adrenalines and creativities of all submitters. In this edition of ROLLOUT, we invite everyone to watch, dance and create together!
We sincerely thank Casa Garden, Cinema Alegria and the Macao University of Science and Technology (MUST) for their support and venue sponsorship. From 1 Jan to 10 Jan, our finalists and selections screenings will be held in Casa Garden, where the public will also have the chance to access the ROLLOUT Dance Film Archive and review previous collections of ROLLOUT selections and Macao dance films. For the five feature films of the Festival, three will be screened at Cinema Alegria while two 3-D films will be screened at MUST together with online discussions with Gilles Jobin, Director of “WOMB 3D”. We all have had a special 2020 with some rollercoaster moments, and our upside down minds have found new ways to understand this world again. Going through this global metamorphosis is not without struggles, but we see the beauty in how the essence of ‘connection’ and the many faces of ‘presence’ have been redefined alongside transformations, which were embodied in many of the submissions we received from this edition of ROLLOUT and gave us a new horizon for 2021.
