Bande-annonce
Ce film sera présenté lors de l’événement La Nuit de la danse le 21 mars 2024 au Théâtre Outremont.
Refuge, la dernière partie de la série « Migration Dance Film Project » de la chorégraphe Sandy Silva et de la réalisatrice Marlene Millar, est née d’une chorégraphie collaborative et de l’échange de langages de danse et vocaux individuels. Les danseur·se·s et chanteur·se·s puisent dans leurs mémoires corporelles et vocales personnelles enracinées dans le tango, le haka, la gigue, la danse contemporaine et urbaine. Ils créent des expressions uniques du foyer en tant que sanctuaire, individuellement et collectivement. Ces sons et mouvements s’harmonisent dans un chœur nomade et rythmique de corps-archives, éveillant une connexion profonde avec un lieu spécifique gravé dans leur mémoire corporelle.

For over 30 years filmmaker Marlene Millar has created screen dance, documentaries and experimental media productions. With a background in design, contemporary dance and filmmaking (BFA Concordia University, Montreal), Marlene pursued graduate filmmaking at the School of Art Institute of Chicago, before she received a Pew Dance Media Fellowship at the University of California (Los Angeles). Millar’s expansive career was honoured at her first solo exhibition, a retrospective of her 30-year practice at Threshold Artspace, UK (2019). Since 2000, Millar has co-created a critically acclaimed collection of dance media work with Philip Szporer through their production company, MOUVEMENT PERPÉTUEL. Their award-winning films have been broadcast nationally and widely circulated at international festivals and influential exhibition spaces : the 2010 Cultural Olympics, World Exhibition in Shanghai, and a UNESCO tour of Latin America, throughout Germany as part of 1700 Years of Jewish Life and recently on tour throughout the UK with their documentary MABOUGOU — Being in the World. Founded in 2014, the MIGRATION DANCE FILM PROJECT series (LAY ME LOW, PILGRIMAGE, MOVE, TRAVERSE, NAVIGATION, REFUGE), produced/directed by Millar and produced/choreographed by Sandy Silva, has garnered over 30 awards internationally including Best Canadian Short Film at FIFA. This process-driven continuum comes to life as Millar transposes the choreography to the screen, creating a poignant visual language that reveals the intricacies of these issue-driven, performative stories centred on migration. Millar is a prolific educator teaching filmmaking workshops across continents at institutes such as Centre Imagine (Burkino Faso), Loikka (Helsinki) and has mentored documentary filmmakers in Iqaluit, Iglooklik, Cambridge Bay and Pangnirtung, Nunavut in the Canadian Arctic.
