The Screen Guide

BURNING DAYLIGHT follows the process of the rehearsals and community consultation leading to the stage production of Burning Daylight. This production sought to break new territory in the arena of contemporary Indigenous dance. The collaboration between Indigenous dancer and choreographer Dalisa Pigram and contemporary choreographer Serge Aime Coulibaly from Burkina Faso, West Africa, in negotiation with the elders of the Yawuru community and the dancers in the project is exposed in the documentary as the backbone of the final work. From the Message Stick series.
