About Us
A trio of women of color who love urban African culture and also happen to be filmmakers.
As filmmakers with diverse backgrounds, our goal is not only to narrate a cohesive story of the evolution of Afro dance into a global phenomenon but also to establish a platform that safeguards, emphasizes, and enhances the learning of this art form.
Our Story
Our journey began with a shared love for dance and a deep desire to amplify the
voices of those often overlooked in mainstream media. Drawing from our own
experiences growing up in diverse African communities, we recognize the power
of storytelling in celebrating our heritage and empowering our communities.
Through our upcoming film, we aim to shine a spotlight on Afro dance and the incredible individuals who breathe life into this art form. From the bustling streets of Lagos to the vibrant neighborhoods of Johannesburg, we'll take audiences on a captivating journey, exploring the origins, evolution, and impact of Afro dance on African societies.
But our vision goes beyond just showcasing the beauty of dance. We're committed to capturing the untold stories of the dancers themselves; their struggles, triumphs, and unwavering passion in the face of adversity. From overcoming societal norms to navigating personal challenges, our film will offer a raw and authentic portrayal of the realities faced by Afro dance purveyors.
