Watch: Step (2017) dir. Amanda Lipitz




The senior year of a girls’ high school step team in inner-city Baltimore is documented, as they try to become the first in their families to attend college. The girls strive to make their dancing a success against the backdrop of social unrest in their troubled city. 

I caught this stunning documentary at the end of its limited run in Melbourne and am so glad I didn’t miss it. Watching these incredible girls go through their final year of school was a total privilege, and seeing them overcome adversity in so many areas of their lives was one of the most moving things I’ve seen in quite a while.
