Movement (R)evolution Africa at the African Film Festival - NYC
MVR will be at the Walter Reade Theatre again, this time for the African Film Festival.
The Village Voice writes: “Through interviews and performances from nine African choreographers, {MVR} reveals how a community of artists has chosen to communicate the myriad passions and troubles of their homeland through dance. Revering the body as a form of fluid sculpture, these fierce artists from across the continent adapt conventional dance to their unique sense of self, hoping to engage with everyone—whites and the African diaspora alike—in order to challenge the West's stereotypical ideas of Africa. Movement is their voice and it screams in the film, ‘Africa must speak!’” - Village Voice, April 2007
