Opening the door to his studio, Balanchine’s private laboratory, they reveal new facets of the groundbreaking choreographer: taskmaster, mad scientist, and spiritual teacher. Today, as his former dancers teach a new generation, questions arise: what was the secret of his teaching? Can it be replicated? Filled with never before seen archival footage of Balanchine at work during rehearsals, classes, and in preparation for his most seminal works, along with interviews with many of his adored and adoring dancers and those who try to carry on his legacy today, this is Balanchine as you have never seen him, and a film for anyone who loves ballet and the creative process.

An inspirational showcase featuring the country's most accomplished young filmmakers.

Don't fall in love until you see this film! Miami Arts, Culture & Heritage month is HERE!! We’re excited to join Art of Black Miami in the premiere of I Love You In My Silence – A Zeek Mathias Film. We invite you to this in-person event at the Little Haiti Cultural Complex. In the film, Zeek explores the oddities of love by questioning one’s willingness to sacrifice self. What if to meet the person that you are madly in love with, you must go through a portal and that portal is death? The odd thing is that there is no guarantee that once you go through the portal the person will be there. This is a hybrid of a silent film, which incorporates poetry. Starring in the film are Bennchoumy Elien, Charli Culture, Rebecca Olivier, Dudley Philistin, and Jean Jean-Gilles. You will see the artistic wardrobe design of Dorinne Jean-Gilles and Claire Jean Gilles. Willandra McGahee will host this phenomenal premiere. Actors and Director Q & A will be moderated by artist and filmmaker, Faith Kohler We will abide by social distancing guidelines.

A free industry-led workshop that dives into what makes a great short film stand out to festival during the submission process.
