Contrada is an experimental video collaboration with the contemporary dancer Roberta Milevoj. It attempts to connect the elements of dance and movement in a natural forest environment. The camera records a new interpretation of the body, where the focus is on the human being and his relationship with the environment – on the individual confronting the natural world. Here, through the art of dance, the need for non-linear stories is expressed. It has its roots in nature, from which the choreography draws its inspiration, and ultimately finds a new form of expression through dance.
