Last days to watch it! As part of Locarno , “Kenbe Alada” – a singular film exploring Haitian folklore and dance – is still available for free on our website until November 29.

Directed by Haitian filmmaker Wendy Desert and selected for the 2024 Open Doors Screenings, the film is born from the powerful collaboration between dancer-choreographer Linda I.
