When we talk about the crossroads between dance and cinema, we first think of musicals. Yes, but not only! A danced film is first of all a film that uses dance and bodies in movement to tell a story in a different way, without necessarily using words or songs. Today’s artists are more and more interested in this encounter between dance movement and cinema to play with this sensitive and intelligent genre that crosses borders so easily.
