China Moves presents dance films by filmmakers working inside China alongside those creating from afar. Eight films explore story, memory, and transformation across generations and geographies. Several works reclaim ritual and rework heritage into something lived-in rather than performed. Others examine the experience of moving between cultures: the disorientation, the negotiation, the quiet acts of self-making. Together, these films offer a wide-ranging portrait of what it means to belong, to remember, and to become.
Followed by a live Q&A with artists moderated by Wei Wang.
A close-up portrait of a performer gazing directly at the camera, wih dramatic mapeup, deep reed lipstick, and deep cheebones emphasized by contouring. One hand is raised to the side of their face,… while the other reaches out overhead, displaying their shimmering outfit adorned with soft pinks and oranges, fluffy textures and fabrics, against a deep red backdrop.
