Traveling the Distance

To the Indians, dancing is more than just steps, jumps, and movement; it is an evocative storytelling device that they use to express themselves. To them, it promotes interconnectedness between members of the community. Thus, it is more than a language depicted in the documentary film Travelling the Distance (Ofer, 2013). The powwow dance depicted is split by gender in the sense that the men can do the styles of chicken, grass, fancy, straight, and northern traditional while the females can dance cloth, jingle, fancy shawl, and buckskin. The men’s dance is characterized by using much energy when performing the moves, while for the females, it is slow, graceful, and elegant. Body language communicates their roles in society whereby women are supposed to humble themselves when around men and men’s behavior.
