Trust Exercises
Director
Experimental dance and corporate management workshops intersect in Sarah Friedland’s Trust Exercises, which connects three spaces—a rehearsal studio, a company team-building retreat, and a bodywork session—in which participants learn to move together. In these complementary zones, the business and social worlds merge in the complex orchestration of rhythm and play.

Home Exercises
Director
Using the formal structure of a home workout video, this hybrid documentary and dance film investigates the gestural habits of aging individuals and looks at the physicality of aging as choreography. In its invitation to viewers to move, the film stages choreographies between the mise-en-scène and the home dweller.
