HEATHEN PREMIERE
2025 | Ireland | 03:25
Director / Choreographer: Vivian Brodie Hayes
Composer / Sound: Liam Bates
Filmed at a secluded holy well in Co. Wexford, Heathen follows three women entering a place sacred to its community yet unseen by the wider world. Moving between solitude and togetherness, they attune to the place’s memory. Neither pilgrims, nor believers, the women step into ritual – connecting with what came before, with the land, and each other.
CORRALLING OF CIRCLES
2024 | China | 04:07
Director: Siye Tao
Choreographer: Siye Tao, Theo Qu
Composer / Sound: Kevin MacLeod
This short film is a far cry of the impulses to escape from a suffocating but all-too-familiar setting, which erodes our souls. The circular shapes, repetitive tasks, swirling movements seem to carry the lady into a sinking hole. Can she finally break free and find her way out?
SOMBER TIDES
2024 | Canada | 12:00
Director / Choreographer: Chantal Caron
Composer / Sound: Bruno Bélanger
Dance / Production Company: Fleuve | Espace danse
Somber Tides is a cry from the species, startled into survival against the elements. One last breath before being trampled by the Earth or maybe conversely a battle to wage against winds and tides clutching on before extinction.

Director: Axel Chemin
Choreographer: Lohan Jacquet
Composer / Sound: Sunda Arc, Felix Rosch
Dance / Production Company: Company Nahlo

“In the heart of emptiness, as well as in the heart of man, there are fires that burn.” Sensible invites us to experience, through dance and the works of Yves Klein, a sensory and hypnotic journey.

Director of Photographey: Franek Przybylski
Composer / Sound: Joanna Wabik

A short dance film based on a precise choreography of the camera and the dancer reflecting an individual journey through different stages of grief.
