Our Story:
well, it’s more like the “Not so” Silent Film Festival The Independent Silent Film Festival- or the “Not-So-Silent Film Festival” has a unique history that stems from the challenges faced during the summer of 2020. When the pandemic disrupted the performing arts industry, LuneAseas decided to pivot and collaborate long-distance with dancers and performers to create art videos that local and independent musicians could score. This festival brings together various movement artists, filmmakers, visual artists, and musicians, fostering a dynamic, diverse, and global artistic community. Previous participants include Wonderbound, dancers from Momix, dancers from Pilobolus, Six Degrees Dance (NYC), Pierre Gaiffe (France), Luca Di Bartolo (Italy), Evolving Doors (Denver), Life/Art Dance (Denver), Jeremy Speed Schwartz (NY), Yuuki (Japan), Anne Gart (U.K), Piotr Smolenski, Dave Huemann, (Baltimore), Rae McAlister (Washington), Cipriano (Boulder), Astin Lopez (Denver), Los Mocochetes (Denver), A.M.
