Bizimina (2020)

Bizimina hybridizes documentary cinema with video dance. Through a series of independent pieces, a story is composed in which the emotions that are so difficult to express these days are found. The crisis we are experiencing gives new meaning to our way of inhabiting space and relating to the other. Dance is the best language to express these emotions. Documentary cinema, the best way to narrate and condense those feelings. The film is made up of dance pieces that are sequences. Each one addresses a sensation: the distance, the longing for the other, the desire, the feeling of community, impotence, isolation, confusion, hope. Together, they compose a story in three acts made of fragments without an explicit meaning or an evident message. That level of lack of definition serves the viewer to build a unique personal story that we hope will serve to comfort and accompany in this uncertain time.
