Congratulations to the 𝐈𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐒𝐡𝐨𝐫𝐭 𝐅𝐢𝐥𝐦 𝐄𝐧𝐜𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐚𝐠𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐀𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐝 𝐰𝐢𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐫 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟔: 𝙄𝙉𝙏𝙀𝙍𝙍𝙐𝙋𝙏𝙄𝙊𝙉 by Dk Fash @dkfash !

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐉𝐮𝐫𝐲’𝐬 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭:
“This short film plays with prejudices about black women in an unique, humorous and highly outspoken way, challenging us to put an end to them once and for all. An allegory of prejudices swept away by blatant female energy.
The intriguing, liberating power of the black female body, set within an old church expresses itself as a form of redemption. Pure and powerful in dance and visual language. An expression of emancipation, in which self-affirmation is celebrated with the camera as an additional dancer.”

Watch 𝙄𝙉𝙏𝙀𝙍𝙍𝙐𝙋𝙏𝙄𝙊𝙉 on Cinedans WEB until April 5. 🔗 𝐋𝐢𝐧𝐤 𝐢𝐧 𝐛𝐢𝐨

Where discomfort meets desire.
Where the body dares to be both.

Every frame asks: Can you hold the beauty and the raw at once?
