| Director Steve Baldersonís documentary feature ìUnderbellyî chronicles one womanís journey, as well as this unique world of belly dance, by tracing a year in the life of dancer Princess Farhana. From Hollywood, California to The Mexican Riviera, from the United Kingdom to the prairies of Canada, from New York City to the heartland of America, Underbelly illuminates the world of belly dance as it exists today. With views from the stage, as well as the private off-stage world of the dancers, it covers the fundamentals and history of the dance, how itís taught, how it changes and heals lives, and addresses the differences between the purely traditional styles and the myriad genres composing contemporary belly dance: from cabaret and tribal to fusion with burlesque and Gothic styling. Interviews and performances with stars such as Rachel Brice, Rachel Lazarus Soto, Samantha Riggs, Kajira Djoumahna, John Compton, comedian/dancer Margaret Cho, Blacksheep Belly Dance, Jim Boz, TempestÖ and of course, Princess Farhana illuminate the range of styles and how each artist puts a personal signature on the worldís oldest dance, as itís performed today. 100 minutes, plus many bonus performances. WARNING: THIS DVD IS NOT SUITABLE FOR ANYONE UNDER THE AGE OF 18 |
