Film still from Inclinations. Danielle, a white disabled person in a wheelchair with short brown hair, and Alice, a light skinned black disabled person in a wheelchair with medium-length blonde curly hair, are dancing in a spatious white room with white bars leading to a door. Both are wearing black tank tops with black pants. The room is backlit through windows above the door, giving it a slight green tint in an otherwise dark space. Alice balances on the white bars, holding on with their hand, keeping the bar between their legs, their wheelchair in the air above them. Danielle, underneath the left of Alice, has two hands on the ground, balancing the back wheels of their wheelchair above the floor. Danielle looks up at Alice, while Alice reaches down toward Danielle.

Description

Choreographed, directed and shot from disability perspectives, this dance-on-video short contrasts the playful connections when disability aesthetics, community and a ramp meet the institutional histories and discordant inclinations that can lurk just below the surface.
