A women stands, takes a breath and steps forward. We see blackness, she appears spinning, rotating and twisting. Suspended or has the floor fallen?

Floor Falls is a collaboration between film makers Lewis Gourlay and Abby Warrilow of Cagoule and All or Nothing

Filmed in Scotland and completed in June 2020, the work was made possible thanks to a commission from Simon Fildes of Screen Dance Scotland, funded by Creative Scotland.

This award winning short dance for screen brings together aerial harness techniques with dance for camera and has been screened across the world at over 25 film festivals.
