Flower

About This Movie

Flower is a short art film where Misty Copeland really shines. The movement is so fluid, you feel it in your bones. It’s quite an intimate look at Oakland, and the way it tackles themes of intergenerational equity is refreshing. The pacing isn’t rushed; it allows you to soak in every moment, every gesture. What’s striking is how the original music from Raph complements the visuals, creating this harmonious blend of sound and motion. The practical effects seem minimal but are very effective, letting the dance and the message take center stage. There’s something raw and genuine about the performances that draws you in, connecting you to the community portrayed. It’s not your typical narrative, but that’s what makes it distinctive.
