Movement on Screen 2009

Movement on Screen 2009 was a total sensation! I already enjoyed the previous year but the 2009 festival was miles better. The Cornerhouse, which is pulsing hub for contemporary visual art and it is also located right in the heart of Manchester, was a great venue and moves had its own delegate centre.

The overall theme of the festival was 'Tell your story' that guided and accompanied the audience through the various screenings, talks and forums. To offer a narration makes screendance accessible to a wider audience which is great. The selected films for the screenings were of very high quality -contents and productionwise- raising the bar for future work!

More in depth will follow from me about the festival but until then I want to recommend to view the photos:
