Inside Head

In this short interactive dance film, choreographer Alesandra Seutin invites us to explore the inner thoughts of a young black man as he reflects on the outside world’s perception of what he represents and the systemic pressures he endures on a daily basis.

Walk in his shoes by picking his pathway and contemplate what choices he has.
