Get your tickets now 🎟️ for Programs Global Feature, Shorts I, and Portraits. These programs feature Rojo Clavel, Five Brahms Waltzes in the Manner of Isadora Duncan, and Risa, among several others. Read below for descriptions and swipe through for times and dates. Link in bio for more info! 🔗
Rojo Clavel: Flamenco dancer Manuel Liñán takes center stage in this powerful cinematic journey toward freedom, self-expression, and authenticity. Rojo Clavel follows Liñán as he reclaims the body as a site of identity, desire, and resistance—challenging traditional flamenco norms while honoring their emotional depth. Interweaving past and present, the film captures dance as both rebellion and liberation, revealing vulnerability and strength in equal measure. A portrait of an artist who transforms tradition into a language of love, resilience, and radical selfhood.
Director, Roser Corella
