Dallas Video Festival 2008

The Bruce Wood Dance Company has staged critically acclaimed and wholly original choreography for ten years in Fort Worth. Far from New York and the center of dance culture, the company struggles to build an audience for its contemporary works. “Fallen Angel” provides a rare glimpse into the little-understood world of modern dance. It reveals the company’s inner character through breathtaking performance footage, candid interviews and behind the scenes vignettes. More than just a chronicle, “Fallen Angel” records a decisive day in the life of Bruce Wood and his dancers. Their destiny would change forever after this performance. First time documentary filmmaker, Mark Whittier, produced “Fallen Angel” in high definition for $2,000. He also wrote, directed and edited the film.
