Two of Los Angeles foremost cultural organizationsthe Younes and Soraya Nazarian Center for the Performing Arts and the Wallis Annenberg Center for the Performing Artshave teamed up with Chicagos Joan W. and Irving B. Harris Theater to present Films.Dance, a groundbreaking new global free film series produced by and under the creative direction of LA-based Jacob Jonas The Company. Films.Dance is being made available to the public at no charge. One of the most ambitious international dance film projects ever undertaken, Films.Dance engages more than 150 artists from 52 cities in 25 countries, culminating in 15 short films that have been shot during the course of the COVID-19 pandemic. PSSARO DISTANTE premieres February 8, 2021, 9 AM (PT) and then can be streamed on demand. When the pandemic hit, dancers Lus Fernando, Jovani Furlan, Luanna Gondim and Mait Nunes reunited in their hometown of Joinville, Brazil and dance together as a shadow of one another, in a familiar yet alien place that allows for contemplative self-examination. Directed by Gabriela Mo and with cinematography by Larissa Zaidan, Pssaro Distante features original choreography by Cassi Abranches, choreographer for So Paolo Companhia de Dana and Grupo Corpo, and original music from Andrei Martinez Kozyreff, Ju Strassacapa and Malu Magri, members of Latin Grammy-nominated group, Francisco, El HombreDirector: Gabriela Mo Choreographer: Cassi Abranches Featuring: Lus Fernando, Jovani Furlan, Luanna Gondim, Mait NunesMusic Production: Ju Strassacapa + Malu Magri Composer: Andrei Martinez KozyreffCinematographer: Larissa Zaidan Stylist: Bru FernandesProduced by: Jacob Jonas The Company Through non-traditional collaborations across cultures and continents, and led by the vision of Jacob Jonas, the worldwide series connects the perspectives of diverse artists from a range of disciplines, dance genres, abilities, and experiences.
