Synopsis[edit]
In the middle of Paris young people are trained to become professional dancers at The Turgot, a school for young dancers. Everyone brings his or her own story: complex family relationships, problems in the social environment and in school. Through dance, the students learn to translate their experiences into physical energy.[1][2]
