Abstract
2021 - 12 mins
Commissioned by Folkestone Triennial, the film celebrates social dancing and dance floors.
Contemporary sounds mesh with aerial images showing a group of people doing The Slosh, a line dance much beloved by party goers in the west of Scotland in the 1970’s and 80’s. The dance remains a favourite in social clubs and at Scottish weddings.
About the Cromarty Film Festival:
For the first time in its 16-year history, this year’s Cromarty Film Festival was led by an all-female team. After a taster weekend of screenings and events in December 2022, the main programme took place from 24 – 26 March 2023 and included a wonderful mix of screenings and engagement activities. Events took place at Cromarty Cinema, the Screen Machine and Cromarty Lighthouse.
The inaugural Cromarty Film Festival was delivered in 2007 and over time had developed into a nationally recognised event. In recent years it had been placed on hold and so 2022/23 presented the chance for a fresh start.
