One of Portland's annual (modern) dance film festivals is back. It has three nights of programs explained on their website. The work originates in 14 countries.
Dance is a tough art form. It requires continuous training, a good floor, and a room that is not too cold or hot, no matter what the weather outside. It is real time, rarely stored, and dependent on audience support. It is not a Marvel film in the age of infinite reproduction.
The films are not documentation of a stage performance, they are a story told in dance. The works are each about 3 to 15 minutes in length.
You can see the https://portlanddancefilmfest.com/ at the Portland Art Museum Tomorrow Theater 3530 SE Division Friday, Saturday, and Sunday 7PM $15 each night
