"Coffee literally changes the way we see, think, and interact with other people. BUT FIRST is our way of exploring this through two of our favorite mediums, film and dance." - Erin Brown Thomas (Director), Mike Esperanza (Choreographer)
Created as part of the San Francisco Dance Film Festival's annual Co-Laboratory program in collaboration with the National Center for Choreography at the University of Akron's Dancing Laboratories. A filmmaker and choreographer are paired together for one week to make a short dance film guided by creativity and the magic of collaboration.
This short film was part of a previous San Francisco Dance Film Festival season. Tune in this October to see select films from the 2024 festival.
