Slipping


Slipping, a new dance film, is an intimate journey of four women's lives, as they slip between emotional and psychological torment. The characters coexist through their unfolding stories in a century old mansion. Their only link to reality is each other. Conceived and filmed in rural Quebec with an all female team, co-directors Roshanak Jaberi and Karen Kaeja set out to merge their artistic voices.

Slipping was created with the support of the Canada Council for the Arts, Digital Now Initiative. A special thank you to Fall for Dance North.

Slipping premiered at Fall for Dance North Festival in September 2022 with two in-person screenings at the Betty Oliphant Theatre & York University.
