BELLY
is a feature length documentary by Cecilia and Chad Rinn of Full
Tilt Boogie L.L.C. that is an intimate exploration of belly-dancers
living America today. BELLY was shot on mini DV and produced
with funds raised only from Cecilia’s belly-dance performances and
belly-dance costume making. Cecilia took class, performed in shows,
dressed and lodged with many of the subjects in the documentary
while filming BELLY, in order to create an intimate and
honest story of these dancers. BELLY
explores the multi faceted lives of these women; mothers, spouses,
professionals, and community members, and the effect that belly
dancing has had on their hopes, dreams, and expectations as lived
through their dance.
