SFDFF Presents Encore Shorts

ENCORE SHORTS

Encore Shorts is a new series highlighting selections from our 2021 festival. The free, bi-monthly series spotlights one film at a time, inviting you to dive deep into a film and the talented creative team behind it.

Welcome to Dance Film SF

Founded in 2010, Dance Film SF is a nonprofit organization that brings dance to new audiences through the presentation and development of dance-based media. In addition to presenting the award-winning San Francisco Dance Film Festival, DFSF’s year-round activities include special screenings, panels, and filmmaking workshops. Through our touring and outreach programs, we send highlight reels to international screens and dance media into local schools. DFSF also produces original dance films through our Co-Laboratory program, matching top choreographers with professional filmmakers and creating the time, space, and budget for them to collaborate.

SFDFF On the Road

SFDFF and Museum of Dance present eMotion. Splash into summer with an hour-long dance shorts program featuring a colorful ride through the landscape of human emotions. Nine screeendance shorts will take you from the red rocks of Moab to Paris underwater, from a riotous celebration of the female gaze to a Tibetan brothers’ prostrating pilgrimage to Mount Kangrinboqe. This program has it all. Learn More
