Dancing with Mary will open the 17th Documentary Film Festival in Ljubljana. The feature-length documentary, which is the fruit of the Italian-Argentine-Slovenian relationship, is directed by the director of Slovenian roots, Ivan Gergolet, and tells the story of Marija Fux, a 90-year-old Argentine dancer and owner of a dance studio in the center of Buenos Aires.
The movie Dancing with Mary, which some have already seen at the 2014 Venice Film Festival, where it won the Jury Prize Civitas Vitae, is finally coming to our home theaters, as we will be able to see it for the premiere in the Kosovel hall of Cankarjev dom, and from here he will continue his journey to other movie screens in Slovenia. But all those who will attend the premiere will receive more after the performance concert with live music from the movies. This one is about Maria Fux, who teaches in his dance studio according to his dance method, which he passes on not only to professional dancers, but also to people suffering from physical and psychological problems. It also doesn't pay attention to social environment from which they come.
