Dance Legends of Philly
Dance Legends of Philly (working title) follows a community of Black elders who continue to gather throughout the week for partnered dancing. This feature documentary will explore how the community has survived and how their dances reflect generations-old traditions that are at-risk. As the elders wonder how their dances will be passed down, we’ll hear and we’ll see why newer dances, in comparison, appear both so different and so alike.
