The Avant-Gardener (2017)
Capturing the beauty, pain, and wonder of life in under 40 minutes
Every frame of this film is a gift. The music and imagery collaborate to leave viewers examine the totality of existing. Life, death, childhood, aging, love, heartache, grief, despair, joy, creativity, wonder - this film effortlessly dances through it all.
The emotional dexterity on display is masterful. The Avant-gardener left me feeling all of the things. But beyond evoking the emotions, it had me reflecting on them. It is easy to get lost in our own heads, especially in this chaotic moment of history. But truly great art snaps us out of it and gives us an opportunity to reassess and re-engage with our own most primordial selves.
The Avant-gardener is truly great art - a poem I didn't know I needed to read.
Tina
An achingly beautiful film
Tina is a fantastic short that features terrific acting and stunning, dream-like dance. Every frame is gorgeous. The story is intriguing, mysterious, and thrilling. The dance choreography is beautifully constructed and shot perfectly.
If you have an opportunity to see this riveting short, you should absolutely take advantage of it!
