About

Minneapolis dance duo HIJACK returns to Seattle to dance in the cinema, to dance with films: in their lights, in their soundtrack, in their duration, in their room. HIJACK is Kristin Van Loon and Arwen Wilder. HIJACK specializes in the inappropriate and inconvenient. After catching HIJACK sneaking into the Walker Art Centers cinema to dance with their films, the institution invited them to occupy their Mediatheque for 9 months of choreographic research with films from their extensive Ruben/Bentson Collection of avant-garde film. HIJACK presented three programs of dance with film in 2017 and brings the best of those programs to NWFF.

PROGRAM:

HIJACK presents an hour-long program of dance with film, film alone, dance alone:

1) HIJACK dances An Image An Image with Harun Farockis film An Image (1983, 16mm transferred to video, 25 min) with additional soundscore by HIJACK
2) HIJACK dances _ _/D C. Sound machine by Ryan Fontaine (11 min)
3) HIJACK dances Drum Room Practice Drama with Miranda Pennells film Drum Room (2007, video, 15 min)
4) Two short films by Minneapolis scratch-film wonder Trevor Adams
