Father and son. Secrets unsaid and unembraced grudges separate them. A wall that guards silences, withheld tears, glances and shy contact. The lack of communication. In spite of it, the desire to embrace everything because they are the same story.

I Am Still Waiting, comes from the restless and still of isolation and a self-imposed attempt to rewild oneself back into life. The text prose by Elena Hecht and performance by Leslie Kraus express an untethering from memory and a dissolution into pastoral abyss. The work was filmed in residency on location in Longford, Ireland.

“Morning” is a dance film dedicated to those we've lost to the Covid-19 pandemic. Produced by award winning dance filmmaking duo, Wilder Project, the film honors the grief that has accompanied us through this period. In an exploration of aliveness, transition, and catharsis, the dancers claw through different textures of earth and water with a sense of reverence and surrender. Set to a reimagining of the traditional Appalachian spiritual, “Bright Morning Stars”, “Morning” reminds us of the beauty of the sand under our feet and the breath in our lungs, and asks its viewers to consider that our collective reflection inspire us to create a world where we all can live.

Time
China WeiSheng Xu, Lingzhi Zhang 2022|03‘26 x
Time is a cycle of rupture, decay, shedding and disappearance, as if flowing in a form visible to the naked eye. When it disappears, only the track of the body's existence is left. It seems that there are traces to follow, but it is also increasingly mottled. When standing in a dilapidated space, he was imprinted with the passage of time. The body here is only a portrait of nature. Without the slightest deliberate manipulation and decoration, it slipped and fell repeatedly, as if it were a drop of dust, gently scattered. So repeated, with the passage of every minute and second, and quietly silent. |
Feng.Liu
China, UK Krono Cao 2022 | 03'28 x
"Wind" and "Flow" In Chinese, write FENG and LIU are universal and common natural images that exist in different forms in all corners of the world. Turbulent, placid and extended, this language of naturalness is not to be over-translated. In China's unique cultural and ideological system, combining the two words has fused into a transcendent spirituality and an expansive attitude toward life. When we focus our attention on the Wei and Jin dynasties, taking medicine and drinking wine, singing and drinking furiously, resting in the spiritual corners of the self and seeking the ultimate expression of individual pleasure, we again reach a coincidental consistency with the spirit of Dionysus in ancient Greek mythology. We have attempted to present a culturally penetrating body language in a readable and comprehensible expression, inquiring into and exploring the traditional Chinese intention of "Feng" and "Liu". |

Enter
China Jiang Xiong 2022|01'10 x
The creative environment "Old Factory" has a reinforced concrete "labyrinth-type" structure, showing a staggered perspective and density relationship between the pitches. Combined with the dynamic and static contrast between the body and the building, a logical relationship for the image is created. . We can't predict everything that will happen, but behind every story is an "entry" and a transition from "unknown to known". |
Bodily Reminiscence
China Zhou Liheng 2021|03'30 x
Hook the memory of the years, arouse the awakening era. I'm in charge of my body... Born under the red flag, long in the spring breeze, tide in The Times of the flood but displaced. This is a process of self - remodeling and self - transformation, is the whole era of the tsunami - like transformation. Personality and commonness collide, danger and opportunity coexist, alienation and rebellion quietly into the tide of breathing and sharing a common destiny. |

Shapes of Aether
Macao, Austria Elias Benedikt Choi-Buttinger 023|6'38 x
"Shapes of Aether" is a dance film that explores the concept of aether through movement language. Aether, also known as the fifth element, is a concept that has been interpreted to be a divine and transformative force that surrounds us. The film presents an ethereal, unseen force that permeates our surroundings and can be captured through the fluid movements of the human form. The primeval landscape, a testament to the power of the four elements, earth, air, fire, and water. Through the dancer’s body, the different elements communicate, embodying a connection between the human body and nature. The film also delves into the idea that consciousness can form physical shapes and how this connection to aether can lead to a deeper understanding of oneself, with the power to facilitate a personal transformation. The dancer becomes a conduit for the elements, allowing their energy to flow through and be expressed in the art of cinematography. The film features the movements of the body, words, sounds, and human understanding combined to create an immersive experience, inviting the audience to connect with the primal forces of nature and reflect the pulse of the earth beneath their feet. |

Beyond The Broken Hoop 2.0
Macao, Austria Elias Benedikt Choi-Buttinger 2023|16'18 x
Beyond The Broken Hoop 2.0 is an experimental dance film that was created in the sacred nature of the Austrian Mountains. The film invites viewers to consider the relationship between humans and nature, and explores this theme through the physical language of movement. The film follows dancers as they move through an untouched natural environment, using their bodies to communicate and connect with the surrounding landscape. This process examines the inherent connection we all share with the rural world, while also highlighting the negative space that often exists between humans and the essence of nature. By depicting our existence as "unnatural" beings within the greater context of the natural world, the film invites viewers to reflect on the complexities of this relationship and consider the ways in which our urban bodies and movement aesthetics can connect with the raw elements of pure nature. |
