Two Ways to Dance is a powerful hybrid of live performance and film exploring Ukrainian culture in diaspora. Through choreography and cinematic contrasts, it reflects on identity, memory, and resilience—blending tradition and innovation to reveal how dance preserves culture across borders, generations, and digital space.
