“It’s moving to witness the power of choreography ... but to Mr. Iverson’s credit, the bravery of the participants is neither sensationalized or sugarcoated, even when what they’re sharing is nothing short of remarkable.”
— Gia Kourlas, The New York Times “A must-see ...” — Sarah Kaufman, dance critic for the Washington Post “Beautifully directed by David Iverson ... One can’t help but be deeply moved by these real people as we listen to their stories being told.” — Kathryn Turney, StageBuddy “...a quintessential ‘New York’ documentary...valiantly attempt[s] to distill all that’s magical and right and hopeful about New York." — Zeba Blay, Indiewire |

Synopsis: It seems like two separate realms. One is occupied by acclaimed dancers from Brooklyn’s legendary Mark Morris Dance Group, the other by people with Parkinson’s disease. Capturing Grace is about what happens when those two worlds intersect. Filmed over the course of a year, this remarkable documentary reveals the hopes, fears, and triumphs of this newly forged community as they work together to create a unique performance. |
