Are we part of the cities we inhabit or do we end up disappearing into the urban fabric? Dancer and filmmaker Eman Hussein invites us to rethink the relationship with our bodies in relation to the spaces around us and the people we encounter. The film A skewed conversation is a surprising attempt to communicate and find a connection with the city from a new point of view.
Eman Hussein, born in 1994, is an Egyptian dancer, choreographer, and filmmaker living in Zurich. She has studied dance, street art, theater, and martial arts. Her works fuse workers’ everyday movements with contemporary dance and other art forms. Working with individuals outside of art institutions is her main inspiration. She collaborates with artisans and workers and lives with them to learn movements within their workshops. Her films, which have been screened and won awards worldwide, combine aspects of public space and movement in contemporary dance.
