Only When I Dance
Brazil
Beadie Finzi
Definitely a feel-good doco! Follows 2 young, black Brazilian ballet dancers and their endeavors to get out into the professional ballet world. I have not much to say about this film except WATCH IT! It's realistic and not overly feel-good, it deals with race, body image, and THE HUMAN SPIRIT. I really enjoyed it also just because ballet is pretty great to watch. Looooved it. The topic of race in Brazil was something I studied recently so it was interesting to see it happening in the ballet arena. Overall, really heart-warming... beautiful to watch. 10 stars!
