Chase

Chase starts with a simple question: what are we actually pursuing in life? The film follows a young woman in motion, building her emotional state through carefully choreographed action across different locations, rhythmic editing, and a fusion of music and words. In just over a minute, the pursuit of something undefined becomes a distinctly contemporary generational experience: we are all chasing something, without necessarily knowing what it is. The film received the Award for Best Film at the La danza in 1 minuto competition, as well as the Z Generation Special Award, with the jury highlighting its imaginative and daring approach and its ability to create an emotionally engaging visual experience through the precise interplay of technique and choreography.
