"On the Border",
a film by Mario Morleo, about 10 years (2003-2013)
of the Butoh dance-solo festival "La Danza di
Confine“ („Dance on the Border“) art.dir. Annalisa
Maggiani, in Lerici and ”Sconfinando Festival”,
Sarzana, Italy.
9. August 2019
9 p.m.
The film "On the border" is created by Mario Morleo
(video artist) and Idea Annalisa Maggiani with a
selection of shots taken in various editions of the
Dance Festival “Dancing on the border”, of which
Annalisa Maggiani is the Art Director.
It is a huge documentation which demonstrates the
influence on contemporary dancers, musicians and
artists of the “Maestri” of Butoh dance. Their
different concepts and expressions of Butoh have
been absorbed and transformed by their disciples,
who have presented their personal research in the
several editions of the festival.
With happiness we have found out that we have been
able to bring all to meet our personal borders,
between land and sea. As we can see, plenty of
artists have left their mark, a trace of their
personal transit.
The vision of the film can totally explain the words
we have used as the presentation text in the
Festivals “La Danza di confine” editions:
“Dancing in this world means running the risk of
tracing new unexplored territories, putting in
contact different worlds, known and unknown, shaped
and shapeless forms, and also tracing a new border
between East and West.
A land where the body can find all its extraordinary
power of poetry and communication.” Annalisa
Maggiani
