Following the success of our first Screendance competition last year, we're coming back strong and teaming up with Birmingham International Dance Festival to present two installments. This first programme, curated by Sima Gonsai, looks at the Screendance genre as a unique language, and brings you showstopping works that couldn't be seen on a stage. Full of colours, energy and ideas, these dance films will get you moving in your living room!
These films are eligible for the Screendance Award, given out by our jury. The winner will we revealed at the Flatpack Awards on 30 May (free event, booking essential).
Total running time: 50 mins
