GARDEN CINEMA EVENT

What About Dancing: Three Short Films about Grief + Q&A 18

Annie Frost Nicholson, Lara Haworth, Tara Darby, UK, Brazil, Various Years, 99m.

Annie Frost Nicholson, Lara Haworth and Tara Darby present What About Dancing: Three Short Films about Grief + Q&A


This screening will be followed by an in-person panel discussion and Q&A with directors Annie Frost Nicholson, Lara Haworth and Tara Darby, moderated by Paul Gorman.


A triple bill showcasing the solo and collaborative films of Annie Frost Nicholson and Lara Haworth, with Tara Darby. These films examine the utopian possibilities of dance in moving through heavy grief, the queer sorrow, ambiguity and confusion of weddings, and the complexities of loss, activism and resistance among the Maes de Manguinhos in Brazil. Despite their distinctly separate worlds, these three films trace a single narrative thread: the ravages of grief, loss, and disappointment, and how we make sense of them, through irony, despair, memory, detachment, absurdity, collectivism and humour.
