Invertigo films
Telling stories through motion pictures.
“Dance, dance, otherwise we are lost.”
— Pina Bausch, Modern Dance Choreographer
In 2020, Invertigo Dance Theatre launched the Digital Dance Care Packages which allowed people to gift a one of a kind dance solo to a loved one. Each one was uniquely made by an Invertigo dancer and was inspired by the prompt given by the sender. Since then we have made over 90 beautiful Digital Dance Care Packages! This micro-film festival series will feature these works, the process, and the sender and artist.
