Staying In – Redefining the Incredible Indoors

Screen.dance 2021 International Jury Awards Finalists. Part 3

Curated by Simon Fildes and Iliyana Nedkova

Scotland’s festival of dance on screen est 2016. In partnership with Citymoves Dance Agency, Aberdeen since 2021

Growing Up, Going Out and Staying In – these are the three curated programmes of international short films selected from the open call to the Screen.dance 2021 festival all competing for the International Jury Award.

Staying In features eleven dance films which redefine the confines of the studio stage and embrace the Great Indoors, especially in times of restricted movement. They offer dynamic lessons in dealing with isolation, perfection, imprisonment, human rights and creative block. The camera gazes inwards, whether it is the depths of our minds and bodies or the far and beyond of the microwave oven or the motel room.

What makes screen dance so responsive to limited and liminal spaces? How can we redefine the genre of screen dance by staying in?

Simon Fildes and Iliyana Nedkova, Co-curators
