Offering(en)

OFFERING creates a meaningful and joyful convergence between the Migration Dance Film Project’s body percussion artists and emerging artists from dance (gigue, contemporary, street) and circus arts. The choreography uses the power of procession in Montreal’s urban borough of Little Burgundy to amplify its storyline of (re)imagined homescape in the era of mid-pandemic. The procession formed by movement artists from across communities weaves its way through urban corridors, neighbourhoods, green spaces — an uncoiled assemblage of nomadic storytellers anchored in the intimate knowledge of individual and shared experiences in unison. OFFERING imbues movement in stillness within our city and takes refuge in its powerful migratory patterns traced across our urbanscape.

Tutu Academy(xx)

At Tutu Academy, where tutus are the uniform, students of all characters (geeks to goths) express themselves through ballet—and bizarro hair. One odd day, a UFO lands and an alien enters the classroom. Eager to connect with the visitor who doesn’t speak earthly language, the teacher starts a dance conversation—followed by the entire class. At first, the alien struggles to learn the artful language, until he’s gifted a magical tutu. With fresh confidence, the green-hued stranger joyfully joins the dancing crew. But just as the bond deepens, the alien must return to his homeland. With bittersweet farewells, the UFO departs—donning a tutu too. On his planet, a stark contrast to Tutu Academy’s vibrant vibe, the alien proudly presents tutus to his commanders, where they dance in celebration of the newfound connection with Earth.

Nuvem(en)

NUVEM is a screendance piece created using the point cloud technique, exploring the boundaries of form and presence within digital space. Dispersed points are drawn to each other like suspended particles, guided by invisible forces that shape them into ephemeral bodies — cloud-bodies that emerge and dissolve in constant mutation. The work constructs a sensory landscape where movement is not only choreographic, but also magnetic. As if held in suspension by an unseen magnetic field, NUVEM invites the viewer to immerse themselves in this rarefied universe, where the body’s contours are volatile and time unfolds in slow, continuous transformations.

Erosion(xx)

Erosion alludes to the process of shaping through which bodies are traversed. Time, as an agent of molding and unmolding human relationships, deposits in each encounter supported breaths, creating passages and possibilities of cracks for access to the other, in an attempt to avoid calcification.

Gluttony(en)

Gluttony is a haunting exploration of the devouring mother archetype, embodied by two twin dancers locked in an eternal cycle of consumption and dependency. Through visceral contemporary movement, the film unravels the tension between nourishment and destruction, love and suffocation. Inspired by the Ouroboros, the choreography unfolds in a labyrinthine setting, where the daughter desperately seeks escape, only to find herself inevitably drawn back. The visual language plays with the abject—orange gelatin evoking amniotic fluid, fractured reflections, and tactile imagery that blurs the boundaries between bodies. It is not just about gluttony; it is about inheritance, identity, and the inescapable hunger for connection.

Quem(pt)

The complex interaction between the different facets of an individual in conflict, where multiple personalities compete for dominance while the true identity seeks to assert itself. The work invites the viewer to reflect on the fragmentation of identity and the yearning for inner reconciliation.
