Taking inspiration from the Fibonacci sequence, the dance film steps into the repetitive response the city is taking to climate change, and references Naomi Klein's "The Shock Doctrine" to acknowledge the agency human society has in exacerbating climate change. Ultimately, 23Krome hopes the audience walks away with a better understanding of what residents are already experiencing in the face of climate change, inspired to get involved.

I will hold - I will be held
I will hold - I will be held
"I will hold - I will be held" is an experimental dance film exploring personal research of revisiting memories through movement and physicality. Through the lens of contemporary dance, personal narration, and video the dance film explores how generations of memory can live within oneself and are enhanced through movement practices. Voicing her strong ties to her Nicaraguan culture, her home in Miami, nature, and contemporary dance improvisation, Nicole exemplifies a modern take on this life-long research. The film serves as a reminder that our ancestors live within us and even in solitary moments, we can hold ourselves with the weight of their memories living within us.
