In the new film Holy Grail, the enchantment of the stage blends seamlessly with the magic of medieval myth. Reality and imagination blur together as a group of dancers and choreographers journey deep into Arthurian legend to tell the story of the Holy Grail. High fantasy film sequences bring the castles and costumes of Camelot to life, while spectacular dance sequences fill the screen with the dance company FLOCK’s cutting-edge choreography. This event included the world premiere of the 45-minute film followed by a discussion and Q&A.
