Aiwa!: Bellydancers of Color Documentarypublic - created 05/02/05 |
|
The term "aiwa" -- pronounced 'eh - wah' means "yes" and is often used as an expression of appreciation when a dancer is attractive or displays beautiful dancing. With this documentary, we will explore the various ups & downs that Bellydancers of color experience due to them not being what mainstream envisions as being a bellydancer ie. "I Dream of Jeannie".
As my research began on this topic over 3 yrs ago, I have discovered that there are HUNDREDS of black bellydancers and dancers of color who have stories that are not being told. Myself & my trusted production crew are on a mission to make this a project worthy of a 1001 zaghareets!
This tribe is dedicated to info sharing & production news for the documentary project.
