Revival
Hosted by LA Femme International Film Festival on CYA Live
7.99 USD
In the spring of 2017, four older choreographers, once seminal participants in the modern dance world and Broadway, started the monumental task of creating dances with a diverse group of New York seniors, most of whom had never danced on stage before. Over a few intense months, these choreographers, including the first black artist to have won a Tony award for choreography and a 92-year old former dance partner of pioneer Martha Graham, brought to life their ideas and sparked delight in the senior dancers. The film documents this unlikely event and, in the process, reveals the capacity of the older person to experience unrestrained joy and unwavering determination through dance and art. Join in online for a special interactive screening of Revival and Q&A hosted by Josefina Rotman Lyons as part of the LA Femme International Film Festival.
