Experiencing Interruptions?

January

January is a visual story of the internal struggle between feeling digestible to the viewer or true to oneself. We are constantly asking ourselves, am I good enough? We want the viewer to ask themselves- what am I setting out to do; whether that’s in life, in what we create, or however the piece speaks to you. The film is an experimental dance and philosophical narrative, following this character as she goes through her routine as a dancer and choreographer.
