Mad Hot Ballroom DVD

Eleven-year-old New York City public school kids journey into the world of ballroom dancing and reveal pieces of themselves and their world along the way. Told from their candid- sometimes hilarious perspectives- these kids are transformed- from reluctant participants to determined competitors- from typical urban kids to -ladies and gentlemen-- on their way to try to compete in the final citywide competition. Providing unique insight into the incredible cultural diversity that is New York City- this film profiles several kids from three schools (out of 60) at this dynamic age- when becoming that -cool- teenager vies for position with familiar innocence- while they learn the merengue- rumba- tango- the foxtrot and swing. - - Region: Region 1 (U.S. and Canada only) - - Format: Multiple Formats- Color- NTSC- Widescreen - - Runtime: 105 minutes - - Rating: PG - - Language: English & English Subtitles - - Disc: 1 - - Actors: Heather Berman- Emma Therese Biegacki- Eva Carrozza- Evangelina Carrozzo- Paul Daggett - - Genre: Kids & Family - -
