"From intimate, emotional documentaries to jaw-dropping screendance and vibrant music videos, their diverse lineup captivatingly blends the artistry of movement with the magic of cinema. Whether you're a lifelong dance lover or simply curious, the festival offers something for everyone. Don't miss the debut of Tiler Peck: Suspending Time, a behind-the-scenes portrait of the renowned prima ballerina as she faces a career crossroads."
"After the screening, join Tiler for a special Q&A with San Francisco Ballet artistic director Tamara Rojo. SF's own Bboy Wicket shares his long journey toward coming out in a moving documentary followed by a live performance and Q&A. Wicket shines a light on the power of community and the freedom of living as your whole self with superhuman dance battle footage, candid interviews, and raw emotional honesty."
"Gather the kids for Leap!, a heartwarming animated adventure about a young orphan chasing her dream of becoming a ballerina in Paris (the screening includes snacks inspired by the film, plus an introduction by SF Ballet principal dancer Jennifer Stahl), and catch the Montreal Steppers bringing their Black diasporic movement to Doc Shorts, as well as Full Out Studios featuring local dancers at Bay Area Shorts."
