Follow the remarkable journey of Siphe November, who left his small township in South Africa to follow his dreams at Canada’s National Ballet School. The rising dance star pushes the limits of his talents, tackles an intensive training regimen and soars on stages around the world—including here at home with The National Ballet of Canada—all the while reflecting on what it means to be a Black ballet dancer and figuring out how to give back to the community that raised him. As much a compelling drama as an immersive glimpse inside the world of dance, this Cinema favourite is a joyous and inspiring story that reveals deeply personal pulses of family, prejudice, expectation, and resilience.
