Groovin’ Griot is a podcast about how we use dance to tell stories.

On this episode, we dive into the world of screendance with Professor Gabri Christa. She shares how her multidisciplinary beginnings as a mover and a filmmaker in Curaçao, as well as her embodied research into her Surinamese roots, helped her find innovative ways to merge her cinematographic and choreographic work. We talk through what it means to take the moving body seriously within the moving image medium, and how both spirituality and technology play important roles in this process.
