Set within the Paris Opera Ballet School, one of France’s most prestigious cultural institutions, this inspiring family-friendly film will resonate with anyone who has ever refused to compromise their dreams. 12-year-old ballet dancer Neneh discovers that her extraordinary natural talent may not be enough to win the approval of the school’s harsh and discriminatory headmistress. Not only is Neneh from a socially disadvantaged background, but she is also black, challenging the longstanding dominance of white dancers in classical ballet. This glorious celebration of talent is a charming must-see for families and ballet enthusiasts of all ages.
Directed by Ramzi Ben Sliman.
