"Ain't Nothing Wrong With Being Beautiful" D: Naama Attias, ISR 2017

Długość:

The video is a diptych which concentrates on the 'pageant moms' involvement during the shows. The right hand side features videos from the pageants in Texas in which girls dance in front of the sentences to instructions given by mothers and coaches behind the sentences' backs. The left side is a staged video of an adult dancer which acts as a contrast to the video on the right. In it, the dancer sheds off objects which the girls wear.
