This piece is an excerpt from a half-hour documentary shot in Grahamstown, South Africa, during the annual National Arts Festival (https://www.nationalartsfestival.co.za/2016-festival/). Interviews were conducted with a wide range of choreographers. This selection focuses on up-and-coming artists Julia Wilson, Lorin Sookool, Athena Mazarakis, and Kamogelo Molobye. The works are inspired by challenges facing women, gays, and lesbians in contemporary South Africa.
