"Cinedanza" is an International Screendance Contest and Festival. It'll take place in Modena and is organized by Drama Teatro, in collaboration with ARCI Modena, FMAV (Visual Arts Foundation) and Emilia Romagna Teatro Foundation, supported by Comune di Modena
The aim of "Cinedanza" is to promote screendance in Italy through a competition and a festival. You'll see films from all over the world and talk with dancers, choreographers, directors, video-makers and artists from Italy and Europe.
Lectures, meetings, screenings and much more!
Cinedanza wants to become a point of reference for Italian artists and not only, an event in which to deepen the screendance and the related arts.
