As pandemic restrictions lift, poetic dance film Open Up Close time travels to our collective consciousness during the height of global lockdown.


Created by choreographers Daniela Cardim and Peter Leung, in collaboration with creative writer, Julia-Beth Harris, they developed a concept which spans three continents and several generations emphasising the red thread of isolation that tied us all together.


Find yourself in the words as they break into movement and look back at the ways we have transformed as the world opens up.
