This was more of a documentary then a film. To give you a brief outline the story follows several boys and girls fighting to become professional ballroom dances. Some of these children come from difficult backgrounds and it shows that what ever age you are or condition you are in you can achieve anything and everybody has a chance of winning their dream. This film was really touching, I really enjoyed it as I do dance lessons, but its not for everyone.
