The Art of Dance Filmmaking: A Masterclass with RAMMATIK

Step into the Creative Universe of RAMMATIK

Exclusive Dance Film Masterclass with the award-winning-duo RAMMATIK 

Experience the groundbreaking approach of RAMMATIK, the visionary film duo redefining the art of filmmaking. Based in the breathtaking Faroe Islands, Rannvá Káradóttir and Marianna Mørkøre, have captivated audiences worldwide with their award-winning experimental films that merge dance, stunning cinematography, and avante-garde aesthetics into mesmerizing works of art.

In this exclusive masterclass, RAMMATIK will share their unconventional methods for transforming visionary ideas into film. Known for their bold contemporary aesthetic and deep roots in Nordic minimalism, the duo will reveal how their distinct creative approaches enable them to craft groundbreaking works that go beyond traditional storytelling.

The event is created in collaboration with dance filmmaker and curator Maia Elisabeth Sørensen. We are thrilled to once again join forces with Maia and dansefilm.dk to highlight this unique art form.

With backgrounds in dance and fashion, Rannvá and Marianna will reflect on the importance of exploring new areas of filmmaking. They’ll share how they pursue creative ideas - often drawing inspiration from everyday gestures, and how unconventional methods - such as intentionally placed limitations and chance can redefine and unlock new ways of thinking outside the box.

Through behind-the-scenes stories, personal insights into their creative process, and excerpts from their internationally acclaimed projects - including The Cycle - this session offers a rare opportunity to see how experimental filmmaking can foster unique approaches to narrative and creativity.

Don’t miss the chance to gain inspiration and fresh perspectives from two pioneers reshaping the landscape of contemporary experimental film.
