D2D is dedicated to democratizing dance in public exploring place & space @ the intersection of film

Dare to Dance in Public Film Festival is committed to democratizing dance, challenging notions of a proper time & place for it to happen, and sharing it on film. Polished or raw, we invite you to make or find a dance in a public place, shoot it, share it, and enter it. Get your work seen by internationally acclaimed judges from the worlds of dance & film as well as thousands of online readers. Burst out of the studio or theater and onto streets, subways, supermarket aisles and beyond…
Dance it, shoot it, and share it... We dare you to!

Movement belongs everywhere…
Streets. Squares. Stations. Stadiums and beyond…
Dare to Dance in Public invites European dance filmmakers working at the intersections of body, place, and cinema.
If your work reclaims space, questions visibility, or lets movement speak where words cannot—we want to see it.
Dare to Dance in Public Film Festival is a call to action to speak with the Universal Languages of Dance & Film.
We hear you. We understand you. We applaud you.
