BELLA (2023) Official Trailer

BELLA is Bridget Murnane’s feature-length documentary about the life, work and influence of Los Angeles-based dancer, choreographer, and arts activist Bella Lewitzky who has been dubbed "one of the greatest American dancers of our age.” The film incorporates rare archival footage of Lewitzky’s performances and interviews with her former students and dancers. It demonstrates how a “uniquely Californian” artist with vision and tenacity influenced the lives of her fellow citizens. Lewitzky was as famous off stage as on, thanks to her battles for freedom of expression against the House Un-American Activities Committee in the 1950s and the National Endowment for the Arts in 1990. She was designated one of America’s Irreplaceable Dance Treasures by the Dance Heritage Coalition and awarded the National Medal of Arts by President Clinton.

BELLA is Producer/Director Bridget Murnane's feature documentary directorial debut. She produced the feature film Odile and Yvette at the Edge of the World which premiered at the Edinburgh Film Festival, and was theatrically released in the US. PBS and numerous cable channels have broadcast her films. She was the Associate Producer on Mia a Dancer's Journey which won a 2015 LA Emmy for Arts, Culture and History, as well as Cindy, Telly and Golden Mike awards. She was awarded a Pew Fellowship and selected to be a Faculty Fellow by the Television Academy. In 2019 Bridget received a grant from the Academy of Motion Pictures Arts and Sciences to design and implement the course “Women Making Films” in collaboration with Canon Burbank. Bridget is a former Professor of Television, Film and Media Studies at California State University, Los Angeles. She received an MA in Dance and an MFA in Television and Film Production from UCLA.

BELLA will have its theatrical release at the Laemmle Royal Theatre in Los Angeles on November 10, 2023.
