Shot in Necropolis, Toronto’s oldest cemetery. This film is part of a series of dance film improvisations Ella created with local dance artists to explore how space and the constraints of time could inform new dance on screen works. The collaboration led to a piece that is reminiscent of Afro spirituals, exploring themes of death, loss and longing.
