Battle

Turns out this is the origin story for Battle: Freestyle. Actually, Freestyle was the sequel, but I watched them out of order. This story begins with rich and entitled Amalie as a modern dance student on the verge of making it big. But her dad goes bankrupt and loses everything. They move into public housing on the other side of town and Amalie has to hide her change is status from her friends and spend a lot of time on the train across town. She goes to the local community center to find a place to train and meets the local HipHop Dance crew. Has she found a new love? What happens when worlds collide? Well, in this movie, dance heals all wounds.
