Louise Moyes’ St. John’s Women
Moyes’ interdisciplinary fusion of film and live dance is deliciously droll– her witty brand of docu-dance defines the Newfoundlander’s penchant for self-deprecating humour.
For this piece, she interviewed Ashley Kapoor, who is 24, Kay Haynes, who is 64, and herself, at 45. The three interviewees spoke about their memories of growing up in St. John’s, and between the film segments and still photography montages, Moyes danced solo, sometimes with text that reflected on these reflections.
