Rhizophora dir. Julia Metzer-Traber and Davide De Lillis (Video, 16:23min, Vietnam, 2015)
Film Description: Dancing between waking and dreaming, a day seen through the eyes of eleven young residents of the Friendship Village in Vietnam who are living with disabilities caused by Agent Orange.
Image Description: A Vietnamese dancer with brown skin and dark brown hair with bangs gestures upwards towards the sky. One palm flat, an offering towards the green trees above, and their other hand is tucked behind their head. Their eyes are closed, as if in a moment of meditation or internal embodiment. The dancer wears black fabric around their neck and a bright green shirt, bunched up at their elbows.
