Bay Area Showcase

SFDFF continues its tradition of supporting local artists with this spring showcase of dance, film, and community.

Bay Area artists explore dance on camera with nine films from new filmmakers and veterans alike. From digitally generated dancers to a diverse array of live humans, see how individual voices and movement styles translate to the screen in this mixed collection of narrative and experimental shorts.
