Filipino audiences can now witness a dance film that would showcase “dancing from all angles” this week.

The Belgian Embassy in Manila partnered with the Fifth Wall Fest, the country’s first international platform for dance on camera, to present a documentary dance film “Hoppla! from Rosas” at the University of the Philippines Fine Arts Gallery on October 13.

The embassy invited viewers to catch the film on its Facebook page on October 10.

“Witness dance (dance emoji) from all angles with us on 13 October (Thursday, 3 to 5 p.m.) as the Embassy of Belgium in Manila features ‘Hoppla! from Rosas’, in partnership with Fifth Wall Fest, the Philippines’ first international platform for dance on camera, now on its 3rd edition,” the post reads.

According to the official website of “Rosas,” “Hoppla!” is a film version of choreographies made by a Belgian contemporary dance choreographer named Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker.

Released in 1989, it received the following awards:
