Dancers, to be directed by Louise Leitch, has been greenlit by Executive Producer Robin Scholes (Once Were Warriors, Mr Pip) as part of the New Zealand Film Commission’s Premiere Shorts program, which funds just six films a year.
“I’m very impressed and encouraged by the calibre of the team behind Dancers,” says Robin. “They have a terrific forward vision and I have no doubt that this short will assist them in achieving their first feature.”
