Mits Festival de Videodanza Moviment i Transformació Social Barcelona (9)

Festival start: 13 December 2024      Festival end: 13 December 2024

MiTS (Movement & Social Transformation) is a Social Video-dance Festival which explores the interrelation between video and dance as a tool to bring about powerful discussions and visibility to all kinds of diversity: diverse identities, diverse bodies and territories to discover.

Residence in the Barceloneta Civic Centre for the direction of a new video-dance project.

The pieces sent to the festival will become a part of the Festival’s video library and may be displayed for cultural and educational purposes (but in no case for commercial purposes).

Call 2024

This call is addressed to those video-dance pieces which through video and the body in motion interrogate us as individuals and as a society. We will value both the artistic content, aesthetic and technical, as well as the theme and social compromise of the pieces. Pieces that simply record a dance performance will be left out of call.
