Move Ya Body: The Birth of House + Leap and Dance Party 🕺🪩
On Friday night, Bath Film Festival Audiences experienced film outside of the cinema, enjoying Move Ya Body: The Birth of House at the incredible Roseberry Road Studios! 🎥
The film was a celebration of the new sound that emerged from the underground clubs of Chicago’s South Side, which sparked a global movement of joy, freedom and radical togetherness! It followed the story of young chicagoan Vine Lawrence, who embarked on a journey that would change music history forever 🎶
After the screening, the space was transformed by POLYMATHIC, creating a chill out space that featured an autonomous, ever-evolving generative art installation, from local artist datarav3 that audiences could enjoy and feel connected to the film they just watched ⭐️
Next door, the Leap and Dance Party kicked off, inviting audiences into a space where they could enjoy the music they had just learned the origins of! This included live DJ sets, that were inspired by the film, weaving in house grooves that carried guests through until late! 🎼
Overall, audiences adored this immersive blend of cinema, cutting-edge visuals and dance floor energy, that created an unmissable night of the celebration of club culture’s power to inspire, unite and heal ❤️
