Manuela Dalle’s feature documentary, Dancing in A-Yard, offers a profound exploration of healing, transformation and self-discovery through art. The film chronicles the journey of ten young men incarcerated at Lancaster State Prison’s A-Yard as they participate in a contemporary dance class led by renowned French Choreographer Dimitri Chamblas. Through movement and artistic expression, these men challenge prevailing stereotypes of masculinity and incarceration, embarking on a powerful path of self-repair and communal connection.

Following the screening, artist and dance program participant, Kenneth Webb will lead a discussion and healing circle with director Manuela Dalle, choreographer Dimitri Chamblas and the audience.
