MANILA, Philippines – Can the instinct to create ever truly be eliminated?
In the short film Regenerate, the Jabbawockeez present a world in the far future where art is a crime, culture is a thing forgotten in the past, and creation is a shameful taboo. To dance is to rebel.
The Jabbawockeez is a world renowned hip-hop dance crew best identified by their uniformly white masks. Without revealing their faces, the group conveys emotion by moving as one, organic unit. Launched to fame after winning the first season of America’s Best Dance Crew, the Jabbawockeez bring drama and mystery to the dance floor. Four of the members are proudly Filipino: Chris “Cristyle” Gatdula, Joe “Emajoenation” Larot, Rynan “Kid Rainen” Paguio and Phil “Swaggerboy” Tayag.
Behind their crisp dance moves and gravity defying stunts is a well crafted comment on expression – the Jabbawockeez’ take on man’s inclination to art. Watch the film below.
