A movement can begin within an individual, garnering momentum until it exists beyond oneself. Through its sheer urgency this action accumulates to a point when it cannot be ignored. When we create films that creatively interrogate our social reality, we liberate ourselves and our communities. It is in this way that filmmaking is an act of everyday resistance.
Ahead of this screening, The Montreal Steppers will host a beginner-friendly, high-energy Stepping workshop and demo accompanying The Steppers Visit South Africa! Stepping or step is the art form of creating music with one's body through claps and stomps. Participants will explore the basics of step choreography—claps, stomps, and chants—and discover the origins of step as a black art form.
