8 films in package

Morning is a dance film dedicated to those we've lost to the Covid-19 pandemic, that honors the grief of this period. Set to a reimagining of the traditional Appalachian spiritual, “Bright Morning Stars,” Morning reminds us of the beauty of sand under our feet and breath in our lungs, and asks its viewers to let that reminder inspire us to collectively create a world where we can all live.

Deafening Silences

This collaboration between filmmaker Anthony Chirco and choreographer Marcello Carini was shot in the ghost town of Poggioreale in Sicily, Italy, at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic.

A chiaroscuro reveals creatures discovering their environment with instinctive gestures. Warned by metallic echoes, they gather into a pack through a cadenced choreography, revealing a uniquely human vulnerability.

Countless ordinary life experiences are buried deep in dust by the ceaseless, forward current of time.

Falling Free is a film about space, freedom and movement. About the beauty of being in water and being water.

Still Life - 'Interitus' / 'Tabeo' / 'Vanitas'

Still Life is a triptych of three films inspired by the stage version. The films are the result of a 12-month COVID-enforced collaboration between Australasian Dance Collective and Kiosk Film.
