Little Shoes, Big Frame (2019)
Stone makes the gendered body roles of professional ballroom—not ballroom as decorative spectacle—the film's subject, adding a rare screendance critique of partnership conventions to LODance's Legend-linked catalog.

Ballroom autobiography
Ballroom dance / contemporary danceChoreography Holly Stone
The contrast between little shoes and a big frame, with ballroom movement turned into a personal argument about who gets to inhabit conventional dance roles.
The compact screendance treats ballroom as autobiography, using dance filmmaking to examine how gendered partner roles, body size, and costuming shape a dancer's experience.
