6th EDITION | LET'S MAKE EVERYTHING MOVE
ALTREFRONTIERE was born from the desire to give visibility to a concentration of different but compatible energies in the international context of dance, apparently distant but united by the constant research through body language.
It is the idea of breaking down borders; being that the boundaries of the body and the mind, or those of a country or his culture.
Body language communicates without words, it is a universal language that can bring everyone together, like music.
This festival starts with the desire to share and exchange, with the aim of expanding the information about the many methods of investigation and to have an ever wider view of the creative panorama of dance.
Variety is nothing but growth.
Knowledge and exchange are precious tools for our inner growth.

ALTREFRONTIERE was born in 2019 in Rome as a collaboration between White Cloud Studio Roma, White Cloud Opera and D.M.A. Teatrodanza.
Since 2021 it is being hosted by Agriturismo Podere 153, a peaceful oasis in Maremma, Tuscany (locality Ripacci, Scansano): ALTREFRONTIERE thus becomes the Italian summer intensive welcoming dancers from all over the world, bringing them together in the midst of nature and offering them the best of contemporary dance.
Every year, for a period of two weeks, the programme includes technique classes and researched practices, improvisation and composition workshops and performances open to the public with the support of internationally renowned invited artists.
Today, ALTREFRONTIERE, besides being a Dance Festival, is a human experience, where collectivity and exchange merge with nature.

This year the festival is dedicated to "setting things in motion".
In a year of great planetary changes, recovering from countless social and political upheavals, we feel guided by the will to produce action: to concretise the union between the spiritual and the material, to give space to all that is waiting to manifest itself, loosening all barriers and continuing to provide matter for creativity.
The sixth edition will take place from 27 July to 9 August 2025
