Documentary without audio produced by deaf people. Music is depicted visually with the complete absence of musical instruments or voices. Directed by Makihara Eri and choreographer Dakei. With a diverse lineup including ordinary deaf people with zero acting experience and a choreographer who performs in Japan and abroad, this film pulls out all the tops to give visual expression to music through the physical body. An aging man uses multiple sign language poems to convey the four seasons, and a girl expresses the wind amidst the rustling trees.

From Dance to God

"Omega Wants to Dance" is a visually striking documentary filmed across Europe, North America, Asia, and Latin America. It explores how dance, in all its forms, reflects both personal expression and collective identity - shaping how we connect, communicate, and grow as human beings. At the center of the film is a unique question: What makes us human? This perspective opens a broader reflection on how we define ourselves physically, emotionally, and spiritually and where our shared potential as a species might lead.
