Nothing In Between
Logline:
Uprooted from their homeland and the lives they love, Ukrainian dancers scattered across different countries transform displacement into movement, discovering that healing begins where belonging is resignified.
"Having the chance to receive genuine, in-depth feedback from talented and experienced professionals is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and I’m committed to making the most of it. As an immigrant from Brazil living in London, my own search for belonging deeply shapes my creative journey. Through stories inspired by real refugee experiences and resilience, I hope to share something that fosters empathy and hope — both of which feel more important than ever today".

Tassia Quirino is a Brazilian filmmaker with over 15 years of experience in the industry. A strong advocate for DEI values, she is committed to creating stories that are inclusive and reflective of diverse voices and lived experiences.
