What Makes Us Different?
Greensboro Dance Film Festival is a boutique dance film festival that seeks to connect diverse communities through the innovative genre of dance on screen. Merging performance and cinematic aesthetics, Screen Dance has expanded the possibilities of choreographic composition and structure by pushing the boundaries of dance beyond its staged possibilities. The festival, situated in historic Greensboro, North Carolina, uses the background of both city and country to highlight dance films from around the world and support artists through interdisciplinary collaboration and creative exchange. GDFF is also interested in extensive community outreach, offering screenings, workshops and master classes in dance and filmmaking while providing local audiences with access to this emerging global arts genre.
