TerryleneOriginally produced by New Day Films in 1997.Originally shot on 16mm, DUTIES OF MY HEART breathes life into Barbara Barg's poem through the expressive and evocative movement of American Sign Language and dance. Influenced by the experimental filmmakers of the 1940s, the film creates a visual and auditory poetic experience and weaves a tapestry of sorrow, resilience and revival. "Following the law of the heart is ultimately a revolutionary act in poet Barg's world, calling us to free our bodies from the rule of authority and find a space we can call our own." - Peter Valente, Author, Translator, FilmmakerMode of access: World Wide Web.

Dancing With Diana A Memoir by Anne Allan [electronic resource] : by Allan, Anne.aut; cloudLibrary;
“Dancing makes you feel heaps better” – Diana In 1981, after the wedding of the century, Anne Allan, a dancer, and ballet mistress with the London City Ballet, was offered an unusual assignment. Her Royal Highness Diana, the Princess of Wales, wanted dance lessons. Would Anne be her teacher? Anne and her royal pupil were soon meeting at a private studio for the first of hundreds of secret weekly one-hour lessons that were never on the princess’s official schedule and never be discovered by the ever-lurking press. Under Anne’s direction, Diana mounted her spectacular debut on the stage of Covent Garden, videotaped a solo performance at Her Majesty’s Theatre, and made clandestine backstage visits to ballets and West End shows for the Princess to get as close as she could to the lives and work of real dancers. Over the course of nine years, teacher and pupil became close friends. Diana appreciated having an outsider to whom she could speak candidly about her personal challenges and her place in the royal world. They would talk, laugh, cry, and—always—dance. Most importantly, Diana learned to express her true self in physical movement. By her last class, the Princess had learned to carry herself with confidence, poise, and grace, both inside and outside the studio. Dance, says Anne, had “nourished and renewed her soul.” NOTE FROM THE AUTHOR “I have often been bitterly disappointed with interviews regarding the Princess. There was always so much more to this incredible woman than what was depicted.  I hope that anyone reading the book will appreciate this fresh look at the more personal side of Diana, enjoy hearing stories about our friendship and share in our fun times, as well as finding a deeper understanding of just how extraordinary she was.” – Anne AllanGeneral adult.

Obsessed With Light. by Krayenbühl, Sabine,film director.; Oelbaum, Zeva,film director.; Jones, Cherry,actor.; Dodin, Claire,actor.; Anderson, Erin,actor.; Film Movement (Firm),dst; Kanopy (Firm),dst;
Cherry Jones, Claire Dodin, Erin AndersonOriginally produced by Film Movement in 2023.OBSESSED WITH LIGHT pulls back the curtain on Loïe Fuller (1862-1928), a wildly original performer who pioneered modern dance though combining fabric and movement to develop a completely new kind of spectacle. Creating a dialogue between the past and the present, filmmakers Sabine Krayenbühl and Zeva Oelbaum delve into the astonishing influence Fuller's work has had on contemporary culture including artists like Taylor Swift, Bill T. Jones, Shakira, William Kentridge, and the Red Hot Chili Peppers, among many others. “A rich tapestry of discoveries by a passionately devoted mover and transformer of light and shape,” (Eye On Dance) OBSESSED WITH LIGHT is a close study of a woman who became famous on her own terms – unapologetic about her body type, open about her sexuality, and protective of her signature, often mimicked, style.Mode of access: World Wide Web.

Dancing in A-Yard. by Dalle, Manuela,film director.; Under the Milky Way (Firm),dst; Kanopy (Firm),dst;
Originally produced by Under the Milky Way in 2023.In prisons ruled by toxic masculinity, dancing is an absolute taboo. But at Lancaster's A-Yard, near Los Angeles, a group of young men, willing to take a chance to be mocked in the yard, start a dance class led by French choreographer Dimitri Chamblas. This class quickly becomes an intoxicating escape from their grim reality, so they decide to create a dance show. In this exceptional context, the inmates engage with overwhelming sincerity, evoking their childhood, gang life, the crimes, the prison, and their desire for transformation. Beyond damaged lives and a prison system on the edge of the abyss, DANCING IN A-YARD explores redemption and the capacity of human beings to reinvent themselves, when given a chance. And more importantly, how art and introspection can help see the light.Mode of access: World Wide Web.
