Cinedans - Dance on Screen Festival

Cinedans – Dance on Screen Festival is unique in the Netherlands and in the world. The central focus of the festival is on dance film. Cinedans sees the ideal dance film as a true synthesis between the two media of dance and cinematography. In addition to a film programme full of shorts, documentaries, features and specials, Cinedans organises readings, debates, laboratories, workshops and lectures for professionals and other interested parties.

In the ever-changing media landscape, creators are increasingly seeking different ways to tell their stories. New media and modern technology have entered the scene bringing new possibilities and insights. Cinedans closely follows these movements, and focuses on various forms of crossover projects and media installations that involve movement.

Cinedans also organises Cinedans on Tour, travelling all over the world to screen selections from its film programme. Workshops and lectures for professionals are often part of the touring programme.
