Hi.

Welcome to my site! My name is Andrea Thompson, and I’m a writer, editor, and film critic who is a member of the Chicago Indie Critics and also the founder and director of the Film Girl Film Festival, which you can find more info about at filmgirlfilm.com! I have no intention of becoming any less obsessed with cinema, comics, or nerdom in general.

Sundance Film Festival 2020 Review – And Then We Danced

Sundance Film Festival 2020 Review – And Then We Danced

That dancers will basically wreck their bodies for an art form which will chew them up and spit them out once they’ve approached an age that’s considered slightly less than young is pretty much a given. Unfortunately, the ones in the Georgian film (the European country, not the U.S. state) And Then We Danced have even less of a reward for their obsessive devotion. Why? Well, apparently Georgia not only thinks it can have dance without sex, but arts without gays.
