REELING: Dance on Screen

Mile Zero Dance has been promoting and presenting dance films since 2009, and our biennial festival, REELING: Dance on Screen, is designed to highlight artists from local to international. We love artists who are devoted to capturing the moment of movement through the lens, translated into a different medium and language that transcends borders.

MZD is hosting 2 weeks of immersive spectacles of film by directors and choreographers from around the world, including:

– An opening dance party, DUALITY, in collaboration with Sokaris Studios
– Dance film curation by Vancouver’s Matriarchs Uprising, featuring Indigenous female choreographers
– Curation of 26 national and international shorts
– A late night outdoor screening by MZD and FAVA
– Radical Dance Intensive: 2 weeks of wide-ranging classes and workshops
– All films will be released and accessible for online viewing, and the highlight selection will be on the BIG SCREEN on July 26, also featuring Newson’s The Cost of Living.
