DansiT continues the great collaboration with Minimalen Short Film Festival on the dance film program Multiplié Dance Film, established in 2015. The program is based on the unique profile of the Multiplié Dance Festival, where art of dance is bent and extended into new, surprising and engaging forms. After several years of steady rise in local, national, and Nordic contributions, last year we took a leap and expanded Multiplié Dance Film with its own Nordic program and winner.
For this year’s program, DansiT received 363 dance films from all over the world. The selection was made in collaboration with an external artistic committee which this year consisted of dance artists Terje Tjøme Mossige, Tendai Malvine Makurumbandi and Nina Wollny.
For the fifth time, a Best Film will be selected from the international program, and for the second time a winner is also selected from the Nordic program. The winners are selected by an external jury of professionals and receives a prize of 1000 euros.
This year’s jury consists of: Mishi Foltyn (Artist, curator and writer), Rebecka Lange (Dancer, choreographer and pedagogue) and Espen Lauritzen Von Ibenfeldt (Works for Cinemateket and Kosmorama, he is also a singer and a former dancer and radio host).

VAYU
Vayu er et dobbelt mytisk vesen som gir liv som en bris og tar livet bort som en storm. I dette ritualet klorer kvinner seg selv i fjeset, som om de pløyer en mark, for å igjen bli sådd slik at prosessen kan starte på nytt.
Vayu is a dual mythical being that gives life like a breeze and takes life away like a storm. In this ritual, women scratch their faces with their own hands like plowing a land, to be re-fertilized for the process to start again.
