The Tap Dance short film THE STEPS I STOLE sheds light on the significance and film-historical development of Tap Dance
from Hollywood's golden era to the present day.
Three young Tap Dancers and Filmmakers explore the evolutionary process through improvised dance and in-depth interviews.
The short film critically reflects on the history of Tap Dance, which has been shaped by racism.
It poses questions about cultural appropiation and current responsibility:
How can contemporary Tap successfully process traditions and transform them into innovative, diverse, and communal dance art?
A production by Nikolai Kemeny in cooperation with verflimmert film & töne.
Supported by the Federal Government Commissioner for Culture and the Media within the framework of the initiative NEUSTART KULTUR, program DIS-TANZEN by the Dachverband Tanz Deutschland.
