Immensity United States Directed, Choreographed & Performed by Isabele Rosso 'Immensity' explores the constant mental battle that rages within us as we attempt to attain the unattainable, seeking absolute happiness outside of ourselves. The goal, the prize, the desires we seek ultimately force us to confront our frustrations and fears of inadequacies. We become so steadfast in the pursuit of happiness through external forces, we completely neglect the infinite possibilities that exist within us.

For example, you look at a tree and you think, "Wow, what a beautiful tree," and it touches you in that moment. You become silent. There is a moment when your mind is gone. You feel the wonder of the beauty you are witnessing. In that moment, there is a pause. Then the mind begins to wonder, "I wonder what kind of tree this is... Is that an oak tree?" and suddenly the communion you had with the tree disappears because you have started to define it. You've removed the magic that you felt in the moment. You don't feel the "tree" aspect anymore, you just see an "oak". You see a word more than you see the tree. The term "brain drain" is an expression that designates a gradual depletion or flight of youth by emigration to a more favorable place according to its qualities. We decided to use this expression not only in its geographic meaning, but to apply it to a self-transformative interpretation. How can we free ourselves from social constructs, history, identification? How can we drain our labels and find wonder in who we are? Here is La Fuga. Here is a quest for sensation. Here is the connection between our feet and the ground. Here is the voyage away from our names and towards our nature. An effort to return to the essence of things. An effort to feel interconnectedness. An effort to feel a tree. Letting go of the labels that define us. Letting go into each other." https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63b66a96022bc0414c755344/1672899222391-AQ41QI6NXGXWG0RK8NXM/IMG_8474.jpg LA Dance Film Fest Program 2022 - Going Down United States Directed & Choreographed by Cailin Leigh Manning Produced by Cailin Leigh Manning & Tanner Grandstaff “Going Down is a whimsical dance film set in the 80’s that follows the story of a lonely office clerk who spins a wildly moving fantasy upon a chance encounter in an elevator.” "A short film for the daydreamers and hopeless romantics. There's no better way to display the intimacy we desire than through movement. In 'Going Down' our lead character spins a wildly romantic fantasy of a playful love story that ends almost as quickly as it began. Dance and movement surround us daily. Have you ever noticed? Try it today as you’re sitting in traffic, taking a subway, or sitting at a cafe. Can you see the choreography all around you? For me, the dance of daily life is magical. The swirling of a plastic bag in the wind or the momentum it gains when my car drives past it, the traffic patterns of cars on a freeway, or the rhythm and composition of children swinging on a swing set are each phrase of movement that make up the dance we call life. But unfortunately we’ve grown stressed and weary and near sighted to the movement that is both around and within us. Even if you do not consider yourself a dancer, you already are one. Dance is as human as breathing. We danced long before we talked and movement will always be a part of our lives. I’m constantly seeing the world through the lens of movement and creating ways to tell stories through that movement so that it resonates with our audience. What I feel we have created in “Going Down” is a moment in time where we can set aside the worries and remember how to conjure up the joy in our lives. Our story presents us with the opportunity to remember that dreams and playfulness are a necessity to living a balanced life. If we live in our head too much, we never get anything done, but if we never venture into our fantasties, we’ll also never know the beautiful possibilities life has to offer. We have all felt loneliness or hopelessness at some point in our lives, especially though out the past three years, and yet we have all continued to press on knowing that there is still beauty in life. “Going Down” is Getfone’s story of pressing on by holding onto the dreams that, although fleeting, stick with her through the times where reality does not suffice. I am beyond excited to work with our dancers and crew to bring this dance to life on film for you all." https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63b66a96022bc0414c755344/1672899222396-URM5MSIB7QMCKK57OREP/4.07.jpg LA Dance Film Fest Program 2022 - Birdsong Singapore Directed, Choreographed, and Performed by Claudine Liang Birdsong tells a tale through the lens of the artist whose voice is stifled in the everyday humdrum of survival. Through the deliberate use of aleatoric vocals and sensorial stimulation, this film confronts the tension and limits of both freedom and captivity that the human experience can hold at once. Birdsong echoes a lamentation of oppression but yet also of redemption - an ode to all who wandered and felt lost; but never gave up on their own humanity. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63b66a96022bc0414c755344/1672899222399-Q3XP02VLMF43IF1GFRJB/3.jpg LA Dance Film Fest Program 2022 - PALACE Israel Directed by Omer Ben-David Conceptualized, Choreographed, and Performed by Megan Rachel Doheny & Ilya Nikurov of Outrun The Bear “PALACE” is an abstract take on partnership and empathy that exposes a couple as they continuously travel between each other's "mental palaces”, revealing a space in which two emotional worlds simultaneously intertwine and collide. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63b66a96022bc0414c755344/1672899222403-RL29GW5IOT8QZP5KA0SN/Thumbnail_1.jpg LA Dance Film Fest Program 2022 - SHE Denmark Directed by Emil Dam Seidel Choreographed/Performed by Dorotea Saykaly SHE is a cinematic adaptation of a solo dance performance with the same name. The original performance work was created and performed by Dorotea Saykaly and premiered at 5’eme Salle at Place des Arts in Montréal, Quebec in 2019. Inspired by The Passion According to G.H. by Clarice Lispector, the solo revolved around identity and doubt. Manifested through movement, distortion and an interview with a phantom interrogator, the original work proposed looking at a questioning body through a female lens. The cinematic adaptation of the original performance work arose during the first COVID lockdown in 2020 as a collaboration between Dorotea Saykaly and film director Emil Dam Seidel. “We wanted to make a film that addressed the isolation we were both experiencing but didn't want the work to revolve around covid. -So we tried to create a world on a universal sense of isolation – the digital isolation that has been creeping in between us all through the last decade.” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63b66a96022bc0414c755344/1672899222407-4V27JIA8TCVKYMJJZOKE/IMG_8450.jpg LA Dance Film Fest Program 2022 - Bustin’ Loose United States Directed and Choreographed by Karla Puno Garcia A young girl finds herself in an underworld. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63b66a96022bc0414c755344/1672899222410-8TQH3JCK38FGITTUPCN7/IMG_8480.jpg LA Dance Film Fest Program 2022 - Bonheur / Happy Place Canada Directed & Written by Maxime Beauchamp Choreographed/Performed by Chanel Lacasse & Greer Whillans With the right people, a happy place is only relative. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63b66a96022bc0414c755344/1672899222414-6ZN9Y46B6XKTBWRDJRI2/9.22A_ProRes.00_01_42_01.Still001.jpg LA Dance Film Fest Program 2022 - Ahead, Behind United States Directed by Ben V Kadie Choreographed/Performed by Jordan Johnson & Aidan Carberry A surreal dance short. Two strangers find themselves waiting in an infinite queue. Dance duo JA Collective and director Ben Kadie collaborate to create a trippy piece that uses impossible 3D space in a unique way, and explores the tension between of intimacy and isolation. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63b66a96022bc0414c755344/1672899222417-IEX6IAUUDW2RO1RRPPHY/Rolling+2.jpg LA Dance Film Fest Program 2022 - Heart of the Earth United States Directed & Choreographed by Lindsay Gilmour This screendance explores the echo of geologic time in the human body and the interconnected and reciprocal relationship between body and earth. The camera and dancer are in dialogue with the environment. The sand, rocks, and sagebrush cease to be inert objects of perception with the dancer at the center, but rather animate entities with which the dancer and camera are in conversation. The film begins with the body filling the frame as earth and ends with the human form dissolving into the vast desertscape. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63b66a96022bc0414c755344/1672899222420-W4IJR00IQ192HL4NX8I9/Stav+5.jpg LA Dance Film Fest Program 2022 - STAVROPOL United Kingdom Directed by Andrew Margetson Choreographed by Irina Kononova STAVROPOL is a short dance film. It is a collaboration between Russian choreographer Irina Kononova (multiple international freestyle battle winner) and British filmmaker Andrew Margetson (Lil Buck with icons of Modern Art, Reborn, Nela) STAVROPOL uses the ‘battle’ format - familiar to hip-hop, freestylers and breakers where two teams compete against each other on the dancefloor – as a template on top of which a tightly choreographed contemporary performance is choreographed. Two teams of female dancers, marked by their neon-coloured wardrobe – dance against each other in thrilling synchronicity culminating in a moment where the two lead dancers go (literally) head to head. And then, in a surprising twist, the leaders switch teams. In an extraordinary moment of ‘fluidity’ merging with ‘spikiness’ the teams come together for a final thrillingly expansive passage. The idea for STAVROPOL was conceived and developed during lock-down. In the Autumn of 2021, Andrew travelled to Stavropol in southern Russia to rehearse and film the project with Irina and five other dancers drawn from all over Russia. The film was shot in a derelict factory on the outskirts of Stavropol. The editing and post- production then took place in London. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63b66a96022bc0414c755344/1672899222424-KHCX2XSWST5MLRPM71CP/to+be+near+you.+PC+Rich+Ferri.jpg LA Dance Film Fest Program 2022 - to be near you.

The cinematic adaptation of the original performance work arose during the first COVID lockdown in 2020 as a collaboration between Dorotea Saykaly and film director Emil Dam Seidel. “We wanted to make a film that addressed the isolation we were both experiencing but didn't want the work to revolve around covid. -So we tried to create a world on a universal sense of isolation – the digital isolation that has been creeping in between us all through the last decade.” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63b66a96022bc0414c755344/1672899222407-4V27JIA8TCVKYMJJZOKE/IMG_8450.jpg LA Dance Film Fest Program 2022 - Bustin’ Loose United States Directed and Choreographed by Karla Puno Garcia A young girl finds herself in an underworld. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63b66a96022bc0414c755344/1672899222410-8TQH3JCK38FGITTUPCN7/IMG_8480.jpg LA Dance Film Fest Program 2022 - Bonheur / Happy Place Canada Directed & Written by Maxime Beauchamp Choreographed/Performed by Chanel Lacasse & Greer Whillans With the right people, a happy place is only relative. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63b66a96022bc0414c755344/1672899222414-6ZN9Y46B6XKTBWRDJRI2/9.22A_ProRes.00_01_42_01.Still001.jpg LA Dance Film Fest Program 2022 - Ahead, Behind United States Directed by Ben V Kadie Choreographed/Performed by Jordan Johnson & Aidan Carberry A surreal dance short.

The camera and dancer are in dialogue with the environment. The sand, rocks, and sagebrush cease to be inert objects of perception with the dancer at the center, but rather animate entities with which the dancer and camera are in conversation. The film begins with the body filling the frame as earth and ends with the human form dissolving into the vast desertscape. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63b66a96022bc0414c755344/1672899222420-W4IJR00IQ192HL4NX8I9/Stav+5.jpg LA Dance Film Fest Program 2022 - STAVROPOL United Kingdom Directed by Andrew Margetson Choreographed by Irina Kononova STAVROPOL is a short dance film. It is a collaboration between Russian choreographer Irina Kononova (multiple international freestyle battle winner) and British filmmaker Andrew Margetson (Lil Buck with icons of Modern Art, Reborn, Nela) STAVROPOL uses the ‘battle’ format - familiar to hip-hop, freestylers and breakers where two teams compete against each other on the dancefloor – as a template on top of which a tightly choreographed contemporary performance is choreographed. Two teams of female dancers, marked by their neon-coloured wardrobe – dance against each other in thrilling synchronicity culminating in a moment where the two lead dancers go (literally) head to head. And then, in a surprising twist, the leaders switch teams. In an extraordinary moment of ‘fluidity’ merging with ‘spikiness’ the teams come together for a final thrillingly expansive passage. The idea for STAVROPOL was conceived and developed during lock-down. In the Autumn of 2021, Andrew travelled to Stavropol in southern Russia to rehearse and film the project with Irina and five other dancers drawn from all over Russia. The film was shot in a derelict factory on the outskirts of Stavropol. The editing and post- production then took place in London. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63b66a96022bc0414c755344/1672899222424-KHCX2XSWST5MLRPM71CP/to+be+near+you.+PC+Rich+Ferri.jpg LA Dance Film Fest Program 2022 - to be near you.

The music and movement is a personal and intimate unfolding of this moment in time. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63b66a96022bc0414c755344/f0c7ac31-37dd-4202-9a1b-c17f128430a5/RedFootball-LilyChumas.jpg Dance Films On The Lawn - Program - Red Football Directed by Lily Chumas After an abusive antagonist wakes up and can’t recall the pain they've inflicted, they begin to spiral and must deal with the consequences head on by facing not only themselves, but the affected ensemble.

And in it, as if by magic, an unexpected meeting happens not only once but three times. The first time, as if from a flying carpet, we see an animalistic figure in the thicket. The second time, we observe a frisky animal herd colliding with otherness. For the third time and final meeting, the moment when a man enters the ordered world of nature. How does the relationship between animals differ from the relationship between humans and animals? In which interdependence can you see innocence, carefreeness, and curiosity and in which bestiality, destruction, and the burden of domination? – this is asked by the creators of the sixth choreographic film project by the Polish Dance Theatre. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63b66a96022bc0414c755344/e02b1e75-a750-4b43-b603-9f7ecb175095/5.+CANVAS.jpg LA Dance Film Fest Program - CANVAS United States Directed by Sophia Stoller Choreographed by Sophia Stoller & Crossroads Upper School Dance Company A large blank canvas becomes the source of colorful imagination in a young girl's mind. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63b66a96022bc0414c755344/72ff678a-1753-4a29-b78d-08261c5da8ab/1.+Demons.jpg LA Dance Film Fest Program - Demons Switzerland Directed by Humbi Entress Choreographed by Mès Lesne In Mès Lesne's dance film DEMONS, we witness Mès locked in a dark battle with his inner demons. Mès is haunted by a sense of futility, of being powerless to change the world around him, and the agony of knowing that the damage we've inflicted on our planet is beyond repair. Against the breathtaking backdrop of a glacier, silently melting away high in the Swiss Alps, Mès battles with his demons as they threaten to ensnare/engulf him in their dreadful embrace. As he struggles to break away, we see his body contort in anguish. We feel his pain of knowing that the world we've inherited is slipping away, perhaps already beyond our grasp. As the Book of Life burns in his hand, he calls on us to roll back the damage we’ve done. How do we break free? Can we work out a way to cut CO2? Can we reverse climate change? Or have we passed the point of no return? Are we even able to change? To make sacrifices? Or do we succumb to our demons, and take the world down with us? DEMONS captures the essence of our times, that gloomy sense of helplessness we often feel in the face of overwhelming challenges. But through the gloom, there is a glimmer of hope, a reminder that if we can find the strength to fight our inner demons, we can still make a difference and change the course of our collective destiny. It's time to confront our demons and rise up to the challenge before us. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63b66a96022bc0414c755344/e85b9753-6b41-40b1-8e4b-2e32af0932e6/WalksWithMe_New.jpg LA Dance Film Fest Program - Walks with Me Finland Directed & Choreographed by Kati Kallio 80-year-old Sanna lives alone with her memories and houseplants.

Some of us are connected in these mysterious ways. Like the elusive realm of physics, love often presents itself as deciphered, only to unfold a new universe when a new theory is encountered. This experimental short film tells a non-dialogue story about a relationship. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63b66a96022bc0414c755344/5075a2ee-95f1-4c6d-a414-5f775c633792/Soma_New.jpg LA Dance Film Fest Program - SOMA United Kingdom Directed by Arturo Bandinelli Choreographed by KWAM Collective SOMA is an experimental film that uses movement and dance as its primary medium for story-telling. A contemporary myth on the genesis of the human body, the piece unfolds in two parallel dimensions: an infinite black hole where entities exist outside linear space and time; and a labyrinthine house where an uncanny gathering is taking place. As the free-associative, dreamlike narrative unfolds, different characters go through visceral experiences of pleasure, enchantment, pain and death. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63b66a96022bc0414c755344/e0d77cbb-a372-4cc6-9fb5-af9ce9bbbf42/11.+KeepingOfTheBees+1.jpg LA Dance Film Fest Program - The Keeping of the Bees United States Directed & Choreographed by Christina Belinsky "The Keeping of the Bees" is a short informative dance film that brings to light the many obstacles beekeepers are facing as a result of human behavior and climate change. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63b66a96022bc0414c755344/ca3dd209-6239-4c13-a255-239860e11212/13.+PROPS.jpg LA Dance Film Fest Program - NEW BORN Belarus Directed by Alexander Devyatchenko Soldak Choreographed by Katerina Sulimenko NEW BORN it’s a story of a one soul, who awakens in a new world for her and a new physical body. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63b66a96022bc0414c755344/20e3d09b-6271-495e-a523-9fd716f95758/4.+NEKANE.jpg LA Dance Film Fest Program - NEKANE Spain Directed by Clara Rodríguez Arasanz Choreographed by Ainhoa Urrestilla NEKANE is an experimental video dance project that reveals the different layers, textures and dimensions of pain during grief. This is a visual poem in which dancer Ainhoa Urrestilla dances her mother’s memory, NEKANE, a name which comes from the basque word “nekè”, which means “pain” or “sorrow”, while reciting bertsoak, a traditional form of improvised poetry from the Basque Country, about love and loss. NEKANE uses dance, cinematography, and sound as a tool to show pain’s complexity, confronting its enormity, and giving it space, without fear, without resistance.Pain takes on unpredictable forms and magnitudes, flowing arrhythmically and chaotically throughout the body. Through dance, Ainhoa manages to materialize and shape it, challenging its infinite and uncontrollable nature. Thus, movement and sound serve not only as means of expression but also as coping and survival mechanisms. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63b66a96022bc0414c755344/bf425650-6f0f-45ba-bdc8-cac6015a71bc/ThickSkin_New.jpg LA Dance Film Fest Program - Thick Skin Colombia Directed by Laura Steiner Choreographed by Ana Contreras, Daniel Corredor, Sebastián Arenales, & David Arenales To be able to live in Bogotá, you need a skin that can adapt, that can turn reptilian when it doesn't stop raining for weeks and that can go soft when the woman in the corner shop gives you a free morning coffee. Thick Skin is a dance film that takes the viewer through the Colombian capital high above the Andes with stylized movement that speaks of life in the bustling city. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63b66a96022bc0414c755344/85b1a900-1b85-429f-868e-1d069f9fde4e/8.+StillLife.jpg LA Dance Film Fest Program - Still Life Australia Directed by Ryan Renshaw Choreographed by Jack Lister Still Life thrusts the ancient and enduring notions of the Memento Mori movement into the 21st century through a new lens of dance and film.

Some of us are connected in these mysterious ways. Like the elusive realm of physics, love often presents itself as deciphered, only to unfold a new universe when a new theory is encountered. This experimental short film tells a non-dialogue story about a relationship. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63b66a96022bc0414c755344/5075a2ee-95f1-4c6d-a414-5f775c633792/Soma_New.jpg LA Dance Film Fest Program - SOMA United Kingdom Directed by Arturo Bandinelli Choreographed by KWAM Collective SOMA is an experimental film that uses movement and dance as its primary medium for story-telling. A contemporary myth on the genesis of the human body, the piece unfolds in two parallel dimensions: an infinite black hole where entities exist outside linear space and time; and a labyrinthine house where an uncanny gathering is taking place. As the free-associative, dreamlike narrative unfolds, different characters go through visceral experiences of pleasure, enchantment, pain and death. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63b66a96022bc0414c755344/e0d77cbb-a372-4cc6-9fb5-af9ce9bbbf42/11.+KeepingOfTheBees+1.jpg LA Dance Film Fest Program - The Keeping of the Bees United States Directed & Choreographed by Christina Belinsky "The Keeping of the Bees" is a short informative dance film that brings to light the many obstacles beekeepers are facing as a result of human behavior and climate change. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63b66a96022bc0414c755344/ca3dd209-6239-4c13-a255-239860e11212/13.+PROPS.jpg LA Dance Film Fest Program - NEW BORN Belarus Directed by Alexander Devyatchenko Soldak Choreographed by Katerina Sulimenko NEW BORN it’s a story of a one soul, who awakens in a new world for her and a new physical body. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63b66a96022bc0414c755344/20e3d09b-6271-495e-a523-9fd716f95758/4.+NEKANE.jpg LA Dance Film Fest Program - NEKANE Spain Directed by Clara Rodríguez Arasanz Choreographed by Ainhoa Urrestilla NEKANE is an experimental video dance project that reveals the different layers, textures and dimensions of pain during grief. This is a visual poem in which dancer Ainhoa Urrestilla dances her mother’s memory, NEKANE, a name which comes from the basque word “nekè”, which means “pain” or “sorrow”, while reciting bertsoak, a traditional form of improvised poetry from the Basque Country, about love and loss. NEKANE uses dance, cinematography, and sound as a tool to show pain’s complexity, confronting its enormity, and giving it space, without fear, without resistance.Pain takes on unpredictable forms and magnitudes, flowing arrhythmically and chaotically throughout the body. Through dance, Ainhoa manages to materialize and shape it, challenging its infinite and uncontrollable nature. Thus, movement and sound serve not only as means of expression but also as coping and survival mechanisms. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63b66a96022bc0414c755344/bf425650-6f0f-45ba-bdc8-cac6015a71bc/ThickSkin_New.jpg LA Dance Film Fest Program - Thick Skin Colombia Directed by Laura Steiner Choreographed by Ana Contreras, Daniel Corredor, Sebastián Arenales, & David Arenales To be able to live in Bogotá, you need a skin that can adapt, that can turn reptilian when it doesn't stop raining for weeks and that can go soft when the woman in the corner shop gives you a free morning coffee.

This is a slow, exhausting, mesmerizing dance, steeped in the unknown, where souls wait to be patiently held, released, and resolved. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63b66a96022bc0414c755344/dcb5ea1e-34f8-4274-842b-c163c815534b/HKB+still5.jpg LA Dance Film Fest Program - Hong Kong Ballet: “Tutu Academy” Hong Kong Directed by Dean Alexander Choreographed by Septime Webre At “Tutu Academy”, the viewer discovers a school where students learn the vocabulary of ballet and the tutu is the centerpiece of their culture. Like any school, there are a variety of personalities represented by our characters. When an alien unexpectedly visits this magical place, communication through movement ensues. The true miracle happens with the gift of the almighty tutu. He returns to his own planet with this powerful offering to spread the gift of dance. For this film, we used over 50 dancers, all original wardrobe, hair and makeup, music, custom spaceship, and other props. Our locations ranged from Tai Kwun, in Central Hong Kong, to Hong Kong University, to the High Island Reservoir, which sits on the South China Sea. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63b66a96022bc0414c755344/151595d5-4eac-4696-ac33-a5b928af3fba/Photo+1+4K_Escape_Mazul.00_03_41_04.Still004.jpg LA Dance Film Fest Program - Escape – To the middle of nowhere Mexico Directed by Rebeca Becerra Cusi Choreographed by Cesar Brodermann & Miranda Garcia Trapped in unresolved struggles, a young woman is mysteriously transported to the mystical beaches of Mazul, Oaxaca.

The text is embodied by a mysterious and suspended dance, imbued with nostalgic desire, which swells like a sail. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63b66a96022bc0414c755344/c5268ac7-134d-475d-8e02-ae2b92a03e04/Table+for+one%2C+MASTER.00_07_08_11.Still031.jpg LA Dance Film Fest Program - Table for one, please.

China Directed & Choreographed by Lu Zhang Monkey & Dog: Coded Paws Two pals cling tightly, hand in hand they stroll, One’s a wily monkey, one’s a tail-wagging soul. How to bond through thick and thin? When one sulks, the other grins— Secret codes only “we” control! Through foggy dawns or meteor showers, We charge through thorns, we sniff wildflowers. Let the world spin fast or slow... Our friendship's a bold cartoon— Pawprints chasing pawprints—where?
