Fresh off its premiere at our Spring Fling last month, SFDFF’s latest Co-Laboratory film “Intimité Révélée” begins its festival tour this weekend at the Queer Dance Film Festival, the latest Bay Area dance film festival that showcases the incredible talent of LGBTQ+ dancers from all over the world.
A fresh collaboration between SFDFF, Ballet22 and a creative team led by Artistic Director Lorris Eichinger, Director Natasha Adorlee, Cinematographer Ben Tarquin and Co-Choreographers Hope Mohr and Olivia Evans, “Intimité Révélée” emerges as a tender statement that dares to explore and celebrate the nuances of queer love and intimacy.
Experience this film and connect with a global community of LGBTQ+ dancers and allies on Sunday, June 2nd from 1-4pm at the iconic New Parkway Theatre.
