A documentary film inspired by La Ville Dansée. Narrated by Benjamin Millepied.

Join us for the world premiere of Dance Map, narrated by Benjamin Millepied, at the Dance Camera West Film Festival on January 29th, 2025, at 7:00pm. Barnsdall Art Park.

Dance Map captures the impact of La Ville Dansée, a June 2024 city-wide dance festival by Benjamin Millepied’s Paris Dance Project. The festival featured free to the public, site-specific dance performances throughout 10 neighborhoods in Paris, revealing the city’s invisible stories through ephemeral dances. The film follows four Parisians as they interact with the festival, blending ordinary and extraordinary tales of dance and music. 

Sponsored in part by partnership-production funding from the City of Los Angeles Department of Cultural Affairs to connect L.A. Dance Project with Paris Dance Project. Co-produced by L.A. Dance Project and Paris Dance Project.

This organization is supported, in part, by the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors through the Department of Arts and Culture, and by the Los Angeles County Department of Arts and Culture as part of Creative Recovery LA, an initiative funded by the American Rescue Plan.
