This dynamic shorts program centers artists, makers, and performers whose creative work is deeply rooted in place, identity, and tradition. From the kinetic brilliance of choreographer Camille A. Brown to the fearless vulnerability of mixed-media artist Danielle Scott, these films explore the personal and political stakes of artistic expression. We journey from the vibrant D.C. underground comedy scene to the communal arts space of Union Arts, and across the globe to Cyprus, where handmade crafts transcend borders and conflict. Together, these shorts offer an expansive portrait of how creativity bonds people to place—and place to memory, meaning, and one another.
