SYNOPSIS

A short video-documentation of the process behind the "NoCore: Untold" workshop held in Helsinki in 2019. The workshop was part of the NoCore Project: a community dance project that deals with gender expressions and multiculturalism. The performers on this film, who joined the workshop, have shared their stories related to the personal experiences of marginalization and acceptance.The workshop has focused on the dialogue between movements and cameras, giving the possibility to the participants to translate their own story in video-art: interviews to every participant have been the starting points for developing artistic multimedia scenes. The documentary opens up the process as well as the personal thoughts and experiences of the performers.
