This screening is dedicated to inhabiting different zones of thinking, where we acknowledge the relationships we have with ourselves, each other, and our surrounding environments. Explore the connections made between these spaces, and how our perception is moved as a result.

(E)MOTION

MIRJAM LEUTWILER, NEW ZEALAND
Youth Category

(E)MOTION is a documentary which focuses on the different aspects of competition and the effect it has on our mental health. The subjects of this film will talk about their mental health and their experiences with competition from both Gymnastic and Parkour perspectives. This documentary questions how we can find our way back to positive aspects of competition, grow resilient and leave behind anxiety and free ourselves from trying to outcompete each other and ourselves.

Youth Category

Exploring a physical reliance and dependency within a collective environment, the first section of the film suggests that the dancers' relationship progresses through extended time and borrowed trust. Later countering each other's weight and creating independent choices that transform their energy into a rhythm state of movement, this piece animates the evolution of alliance between dependencies within ourselves and in comparison to others.

Film still of Rachelle Ashmore, Jasmine Liaw, Shayla Dyble by Jennifer Robichaud
