One of the most beautiful, entrancing and intensely original films in the line-up, MA is an artful non-verbal work (it features only a few lines of dialogue). Written and directed by the amazing (VMA award-winning and Emmy nominated) choreographer, dancer and filmmaker, Celia Rowlson-Hall, who also stars, the film is truly visionary. It is also, perhaps, the most experimental film in the festival weekend. Part dance musical, part melodrama, part religious allegory... not to be missed. We are incredibly honored to have MA in the 2016 Sidewalk line-up.
