A wonderfully whimsical, and at times deeply philosophical, guide to movement as told by choreographer Alexander Ekman and his friends.

"Coffee literally changes the way we see, think, and interact with other people. BUT FIRST is our way of exploring this through two of our favorite mediums, film and dance." - Erin Brown Thomas (Director), Mike Esperanza (Choreographer)
Created as part of the San Francisco Dance Film Festival's annual Co-Laboratory program in collaboration with the National Center for Choreography at the University of Akron's Dancing Laboratories. A filmmaker and choreographer are paired together for one week to make a short dance film guided by creativity and the magic of collaboration.
This short film was part of a previous San Francisco Dance Film Festival season. Tune in this October to see select films from the 2024 festival.
