ROLLOUT Dance Film Festival invites dance, movement, image and video artists to submit their dance films to the 4th edition of the Festival!

Inaugurated in 2016, ROLLOUT is a biennial dance film festival in Macao co-organized by Ieng Chi Dance Association, Point View Art Association and Concept Pulse Studio.

ROLLOUT Dance Film Festival features international contests, selection screenings, focus talks, workshops, screening tours and lab collaborations. It was founded out of the vision to create a dance film platform across disciplines and bodies, among local and international artists.

Our previous editions have received submissions from more than 89 countries and regions, while our ROLLOUT Lab series have induced collaborations among various Asian dance film networks. We aim to encourage creations and inspirations among every possible participant in this hybrid art form and reflect on all possible dialogues which connect us with our bodies, societies and cultures.
