Nothing to Lose with Kelli Jean Drinkwater

Arts, Entertainment, Performing Arts, Society & Culture, TV & Film

Nothing to Lose is a documentary following the fierce, fat and unapologetically queer cast of Force Majeure’s award-winning, groundbreaking dance theatre production of the same name. It’s making its Melbourne premier at ACMI on October 2nd and the creator Kelli Jean Drinkwater chatted to the MAD Wednesday crew all about it.

When the production was in Melbourne in 2015 Dean was part of the ensemble and the documentary explores the inherent movement potential of the fat body and the relationship the extraordinary cast of the production have with themselves, following their journey from the first auditions to the sell out opening night at the Sydney Festival in 2015.

Get your tickets for the Melbourne premier at ACMI here.

Join us at ACMI Conversations beforehand to talk about Body Politics and the Moving Image.
