Where no woman had gone before?

 Carmencita (1894)


Directed by William K. L. Dickson this is a short film staring Carmencita. We see a woman dancing in front of the camera.


Barely thirty seconds long this is not the longest dance you will ever see. What we do get here is possibly one of the first ever women caught on film. As early dance clips go this film does not stand out much beyond its historical significance.


3/5
