They Dance With Their Heads (French: Ils dansent avec leurs têtes) is a Canadian short animated film, directed by Thomas Corriveau and released in 2021.[1] An experiment in the animation of dance, the film opens with a slow zoom into an island occupied by the disembodied head of a choreographer, who comes back to life and articulates an artistic philosophy voiced by actor and dancer Marc Béland, before various dancers begin to perform.[1]

The film premiered at the 2021 Annecy International Animation Film Festival.[2]

The film received a Prix Iris nomination for Best Animated Short Film at the 24th Quebec Cinema Awards in 2022.[3]
