Trash Dance - Theatrical Trailer

Choreographer Allison Orr finds beauty and grace in garbage trucks, and in the unseen men and women who pick up our trash. Filmmaker Andrew Garrison follows Orr as she rides along with Austin sanitation workers on their daily routes to observe and later convince them to perform a most unlikely spectacle. On an abandoned airport runway, two dozen trash collectors and their trucks deliver — for one night only — a stunningly beautiful and moving performance, in front of an audience of thousands, who are awed to discover how in the world a garbage truck can “dance.”

Trash Dance will premiere in theaters on April 26 in NYC at the reRun Theater and on May 3 in Austin at Violet Crown Cinema. Additional cities to be announced soon. Online streaming of the film will be available in May, with a DVD release planned for June 2013.

The intrepid investigator soon realizes that he is not alone….

Christiane Cegavske is an artist currently living in the wilds of Oregon working on her second animated feature film, Seed in the Sand. Her work leans toward surrealism, with her paintings tending to be rendered realistically and her films usually involving anthropomorphic creatures in fancy costumes. The imagery is inspired by her own mythic imaginings that have been drawn from many sources. In addition to the world around her, inspirations include Bosch, Botticelli, Frida Khalo, Jan Svankmajer, Ladislas Starewich, Leonora Carington, Joseph Campbell, ancient mythology and many more.

Christiane’s best known animated film is her feature length work, Blood Tea and Red String, completed in 2005. She recently completed a music video for Mark Growden’s song Coyote from his album Saint Judas. Other animated films include Making a Friend and Blood and Sunflowers. She is also working on a collection of paintings entitled Little Red, which tells a story of sorts. She plans to publish the collection as an art book. She has published two books of poetry and art. The newest is A Raven in the Looking Glass. The first one, A Raven Went Out Walking, was originally done as a hand-bound book and is now available in an affordable printed version. She also loves to sew her own fancy outfits and dolls and has created a limited edition board game called Doll Hunt.

In addition to being an independent film maker, painter, poet and doll maker; she has been a lead animator and sculptor working on projects for The Oxygen Network, VH1, the Disney Channel and Fox at Space Bass Films Inc. and Acme Filmworks in Los Angeles and on a variety of projects with Bent Image Lab in Portland, Oregon.
