HEREDITARY - Create4 (NL)
The exploration of the (lack of) things that we have learned from our fathers. As we grow and become men, the absence of our fathers affects us more than ever. We carry memories for guidance and hope that our shadows are them and will protect us. Two young black men from different sides of the world explore the long- ingrained, toxic masculinity that is passed on generation to generation, sometimes actively by a father who is present, and the other times through the absence of a father figure. In a physical conversation blended with hip hop dance, they share and learn from their differences and similarities.
DANCERS Joao M. Balde Arias AKA Juan & Angel Ali Gonzalez Felix
