A contemporary dance short directed and choreographed by Vienna Hank and Kensley Iwamoto, blending intimate scenes with movement-led storytelling.

The approach

Warm interiors, blue night scenes and close performance coverage give the dance and dramatic moments a shared visual language. James Alton photographed, co-edited, coloured and co-produced the film.
