IMPRINTED

Imprinted is an intimate and cinematic journey into the world of choreographer JoAnna Mendl Shaw, whose pioneering work with dancers and horses transcends traditional boundaries of movement. Through intimate moments and breathtaking landscapes, the film explores a choreographic language rooted in trust, listening, and interspecies connection, inviting us to reconsider how we relate to animals, to each other, and to ourselves.

IMPRINTED

Imprinted es un viaje íntimo al mundo de la coreógrafa JoAnna Mendl Shaw, cuyo trabajo innovador con bailarines y caballos amplía las formas tradicionales del movimiento. Entre gestos sutiles y paisajes abiertos, la película explora un lenguaje coreográfico basado en la confianza, la comunicación y la interacción entre especies, invitándonos a replantear nuestra relación con los animales, con los demás y con nosotros mismos.
