“When I dance, that is my true gender.”
In Dance, Dance, Evolution six trans-identified people explore their relationship
to dance over time. As one participant says, “What I feel when I’m dancing is the
very decomposition of myself.” This short, joyful documentary looks at the ways in
which the body in motion opens up the spaces between gender, race, and time, producing
pleasure in indeterminacy. This begs the question, how do we take that idealized moment
on the dance floor--where nothing matters but the beat--and take it with us everywhere
we go?
