It features screenings of new work by some of the finest dance

notion of what dance film is, alongside work from film and
television at Dance Flicks.
In addition there are presentations by some of the key players
in the dance film world, including directors, choreographers,
producers and funders in Insights.
Watch
out for One Minute Wanders, the fourth series of extremely
short dance films that will be premiered at Dance on Screen.

music and dance. And new to the festival, an afternoon of
dance documentaries, Dance in the Doc.
