A single memory can shape a lifetime.
Last summer, we had the honor of working with @heritageworks to bring Papa Assane Konte’s first experience with dance to life through animation.
Built from a single conversation, this film was created alongside a small team of artists, including five hand-selected interns, who studied movement, culture, and performance to capture something honest.
Now touring the festival circuit 🎬.
