ICON is about the creating of an image, an unattainable icon of perfection that is pursued in vain. Again and again the characters in the film are confronted by this.

In the world that they created, they discover their imperfections and project this on the icon they designed. They give her the shape they can not attain, a shape of this perfect image that can last only briefly.

An endless practice in repetition, in increased expectations, in the self-imposed expectation of perfection that can never be fully achieved.

Aïpeur Foundou is a Congolese dancer and choreographer. Amidst some popular areas of Brazzaville, he shows us a possible way to freedom.

INTRINSIC MORAL EVIL seems to be a tale of identity and coming of age. But above all, the three dancers play with the viewer’s perception and expectations.

The layered story gradually develops. Revealing its last secrets just before the end credits start, the film invites the audience to make interpretations of its own.

DANCING IN SILK tells the story of Khannia, a young Cambodian American dancer and instructor at Khmer Arts Academy, who lives in the ethnic neighborhood of Cambodia Town in Long Beach, CA.

Khannia has taken up the responsibility to pass on her knowledge of Khmer classical ballet, a millennium-old practice that has nearly disappeared under the Khmer Rouge regime.

In her studio, a young generation of Cambodian-Americans, mostly young girls who grew up far from their roots, reconnect with their identity and reveal themselves through movement, costumes, and community. Khmer dance offers them a transformative experience into spirituality and womanhood.

This documentary film follows the dance troupe on its emotional and artistic journey which culminates with a performance on stage.

A series of men are lured to their destruction where they engage in a steamy tango with a seductive dance partner.

With a lush musical score, Jazz Age costumes, and visually striking cinematography, this evocative short film uses the tango as a metaphor for life’s tempting interruptions.

How does your breath affect you, your relationships, and your choices? Do you let yourself breathe?
