NPB
As part of VOiiiD Collectives work LAMINA, the film delves into the complexities of communication, highlighting the myriad ways in which individuals attempt to convey their refusal, only to have it dismissed or ignored. Through evocative imagery and nuanced storytelling, "NPB" challenges societal norms and prompts viewers to question the importance of honoring consent and boundaries.

CALL TO THE STONE
A dance film that speaks to where we are as a species and how we’ve arrived here; our collective narrative told with gentle potency to bring awareness, lighten our spirits and walk each other home to our connected Origin? What is it like to inhabit your body? What world do you ache for?
This film was created across Barunggam, Yuggera, Dainggatti, Biripi, Waka Waka and Bundjalung Countries and we honour the original custodians of these beautiful places. We pay deep respect to elders past, present and emerging; acknowledging that sovereignty was never ceded on this land that we are blessed to live on. May this film contribute to the remembrance of our oneness.

THE DUPE
Digital technology has extended our agency beyond time and space. The fluidity of embodiment means we are no longer confined to our ‘organic’ bodies, but rather exist through and across interactions of multiple media. These digital environments give rise to a new form of subjectivity that raises questions about identity, ownership, and consent. The Dupe is an experimental dance film that invites you to think: when does playfulness and exploration become about power and control?

SOAPWORT
Uprooted from the cracks of tarmac and fern flitches, the SOAPWORT slinks and glitches through liquid life, full-suds and fanciful. Dappled with dew and sewer stains, this windpuff-bonnet of folly-froth reigns and self-seeds in a world of wet concrete and weeds.

Blurb: How do you express the complexities, while challenging the stereotypes of living with OCD? Through movement, light and sound, mental health advocate, Josh Di Nucci, and artist, Nadia Milford, capture the depth and intricacies of living with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder
(OCD). This creative dance piece explores the duality of ritualism; from initial comfort to anxious entrapment, while instilling hope for those living with obsessions and compulsions.
