Market Screening
‘Tanja - Life in Movement’

Presented by Dachverband Tanz Deutschland

A visually stunning and moving tribute to the German-born Tanja Liedtke. An internationally celebrated dancer and choreographer, she was only  29 years of age when she was appointed head of the famous Sydney Dance Company.
Tanja Liedtke was known as a passionate artist - smart, crazy, funny, generous and cocky. Before she could move to Sydney, and the long-awaited new adventure, she died in a tragic car accident in 2007.
The directors Sophie Hyde and Bryan Mason manage to capture this rollercoaster ride of emotions. At its core, Tanja - Life in Movement, is a film about the source and the fragility of human creativity.
