Freak Dance

What if your biggest dream was also your most ridiculous? In this 2010 musical comedy, a ragtag dance troupe with more heart than talent scrapes by in a dingy studio, their aspirations constantly mocked by a slick, successful rival crew. Their only hope lies in an upcoming city-wide battle, a make-or-break moment that will test their friendship and bizarre choreography. Between the infectious, over-the-top musical numbers and cringe-worthy auditions, the film finds a surprising amount of soul. It’s a hilarious and oddly heartfelt tribute to the underdog, celebrating the glorious mess of chasing a passion everyone tells you to abandon.
