Dunja Jocić is a choreographer and director, leading Stichting Dunja Jocić, a contemporary dance company based in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. Her work is recognized for its strong physicality and cinematic quality, exploring themes of perception and humanity’s relationship with technology, mortality, and transformation. Drawing from a diverse background in rhythmic gymnastics, film, and ballet, Jocić’s choreography has a distinctive voice that bridges movement and narrative. Working across different mediums—including film, theatre, and opera—she has collaborated with prominent artists and companies and created award-winning dance films like Mirroring and Bird. Her choreographic works have been commissioned by Gauthier Dance, Spellbound Contemporary Ballet, Stadtstheater Braunschweig, Dance Company Osnabrück, and Hessisches Staatsballett.

FOLK:
In Folk, a vibrant club night slowly transforms into an intoxicating ritual. The dance floor becomes an altar, and the night turns into a chain of ceremonies in which uniformity takes the upper hand. As the atmosphere shifts, so does the dynamic: the group forms a shared identity that constantly changes, unstable and elusive, in which individuals are either absorbed or cast out.

How to apply:
Interested dancers should have a strong background in ballet and contemporary techniques, a keen sense of rhythm, an interest in exploring acting, and an openness to collaborative creation.
Internship applicants must still be in school (not yet graduated) at the time of the project.

Please submit the following:
-A short introduction video of yourself (you can discuss your background, experience, and anything else you might want to share).
-Dance reel and/or improvisation video
-CV/Resumé
-Headshot
-Dance Photo
