The reason why we hunt

What happens when the body stops dancing? The Reason Why We Hunt, offers a cautionary tale about what happens when a young woman realizes her creative faculties have been co-opted. As a short film, the piece introduces the central conflict of artist, Nnenna Emmanuel and her quest to understand her creative purpose.
