Dance Film – Strings

Strings brings together young people with complex needs such as autism with dance artists from Barrowland Ballet discovering the rich possibilities for connection through dance, celebrating the creative playfulness they discover together and children’s ability to take the lead.

To care for someone is to feel concern or interest, to attach importance to them, it takes time, focus and commitment. Strings shows how we can care for people and the joy that can come from it.
