Welcome to the program HACKED designed for you to find humanity again.
In the future, man has psychologically merged with technology and the point is likely to come where man as a being with individual expression becomes extinct. A final rescue attempt is a radical program to free humanity from the collective technological trap. Man must be taught to be an individual again, with all the beauty and ugliness of our past.
A hybrid clusterfuck where film, AI and dance are conflicting one another.

Danielle Huyghe (BE) is a Rotterdam-based choreographer whose work blends dance, film, and technology into a poetic and physical language. A graduate of ArtEZ and current Master's student at Toneelacademie Maastricht, Danielle is quickly establishing herself as a distinctive voice in the international dance scene.
Her duet Out of the Blue (2019) — winner of the Jury Prize at 25Masdanza (ES) — toured widely across Europe and was selected for leading choreography competitions. With Into the Blue, she deepened her exploration of film and movement; the piece, featuring the award- winning short L’Heure bleue, was presented over 20 times across renowned venues and festivals in the Netherlands, Belgium, Spain, Italy, and more.
Recent works include Club 27 and the reimagined group piece Into the Night. In 2024, Danielle premieres her new full-length production HACKED, co-produced with Korrelfilm, alongside a new short film SYNC, and a new groups piece FRAMED.
