Finding Focus

  • Elizabeth Rose Arifien

Finding Focus is a short movement film I created & produced exploring the right and left side of the brain of someone who is dyslexic. You will witness the two dancers trying to connect to perform synchronicity throughout the film, often unable to achieve their goal. Ultimately, representing the difficulties with obtaining tasks that require both sides of the brain to work cohesively. Something that is often difficult for dyslexics due to the neurodiverse complexities within their brain. Supported by Studio Wayne McGregor, Visceral Creative, How2productions and Ugly Duck Studios.
