OtroLado [OtherSide]

When three of Cuba’s most celebrated dancers leave the national company to form their own trio, the mandate to execute rises. Meanwhile, they’ve given up the resources that supported them. Under the weight of their departure, they struggle and demand more of themselves and each other. In that tension, their creative capabilities rise and their relationships strengthen. Part documentary, part performance, OtroLado is a behind-the-scenes-look as they test the boundaries of contemporary dance, friendship, and art.
