Mad Hot Ballroom

The best movie I have seen in a while. We laughed, we cried and we left the cinema feeling really good and wanting to dance. A human documentary about a new program in NY schools in poor areas, to introduce children to dancing leading to the competition at the end of the year.
"The secret to success in life is to find something you love to do and then try to do it really well." And some of those kids can really dance.
Brilliant. A mix of Spellbound, Etre and avoir and Born into Brothels.
You can watch the preview here and lots of extras here. Enjoy!
