Doc Edge Festival 2023: Keep Stepping

Director Cornish's inspiring film highlights the world of street dance, a gruelling mix of athleticism and artistic expression, often marginalised by the mainstream as a mere curiosity. The movie follows Gabi, a Chilean Samoan, and Patricia, a Romanian-born dancer, as they prepare for Australia's biggest street dance competition, Destructive Steps. To achieve their dreams, they must overcome financial struggles, injuries, volatile relationships, and even the risk of deportation. Despite the odds, the film showcases the empowerment and respect that street dance provides to those who rise to the top. The film proves that dance transcends all barriers, offering an inspiring glimpse into the lives of street dancers and the challenges they face.
