Frozen River Film Fest 2021: Solar Eclipse

On this episode of Art Beat we take you to the 2021 Frozen River Film Festival which was held virtually this year. Today we sit down with Dakota Maertz and Joe Eichele, directors of Solar Eclipse, which was part of the local set at this years festival. Dakota and Joe are students at Winona State University and teamed up with the Theatre and Dance department to create their film Solar Eclipse. Due to the pandemic this year the Theatre and Dance department was unable to hold their annual Dancescape in person, so Joe and Dakota stepped in to create this dance film. I’m Bill Stoneberg, stick around, as we take a look at Solar Eclipse, with directors Joe Eichele and Dakota Maertz, on Art Beat.Original air date: 04/06/21Art Beat is written and produced by KQAL on the campus of Winona State University and is made possible by the Minnesota Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund.
