Dance or Die celebrates the determination of Ahmad Joudeh, a Syria-born dancer, who battles against war, death threats and statelessness in the pursuit for his true meaning of freedom. “I came from a place where death surrounded me, yet hope was blossoming within me and it still does, so I rise. Everyday I see people fighting for their freedom , sacrificing their lives for it, and now for the soul of Mahsa Amini. Iran is longing for freedom. Fight and rise cause the only way out is in. One day we will all live in peace.” - Ahmad Joudeh Dancer/Choreographer @ahmadjoudehofficial Director @laceyuhle Creative Director @carlyhebert1 Cinematographer @justinphamilton Assistant Camera Brian Hall Steadicam Operator @lukerihl Post Supervisor @lassloos Post House @uppercutedit Editor @mo.the.director Colorist @tayloraschafer Color Assistant Isaac Ogle Composer @farid_sheek Cello Maya Fridman Recording Stijn Donders
