Bellydancing: A History and an Art
Fans of films may find Bellydancing: A History and an Art especially interesting thanks to its engaging atmosphere, visual presentation, and entertainment value.
Filmmaker Alicia Dhanifu, who appears in director Jamaa Fanaka’s Emma Mae, constructs a rigorous and beautifully rendered history of belly dancing — its roots and history, forms and meanings. The filmmaker performs this art as well, alone and with other dancers. —Shannon Kelley
