Dance for Me<br />

by katrine philp<br />

In Denmark, the dance halls are bursting with dancers<br />

of high international standards. It is all about getting<br />

the right partner, when you want to go to the top. But in<br />

a small country like Denmark, this is not always as<br />

easy as it sounds. Mie (14) is an elite dancer. When her<br />

partner stops, the family decides to search for a new<br />

one abroad. Russian Egor (15) finds out that his mother<br />

has set up a tryout for him, and if it turns out well,<br />

Egor will stay with Mie in Denmark. Since May 2011 he<br />

has lived with Mie and her parents in Denmark. All<br />

eyes are on the young couple, the pressure is on and they<br />

are expected to make it to the top. Dance for Me is a<br />

film about a vulnerable young male dancer that has left<br />

everything behind for a new life in a totally strange<br />

family and completely different culture. With sensitivity<br />

and insight director Katrine Philp unravels the story<br />

with poetry and aesthetics. Dance for Me is a modern tale<br />

of migration and pursuit of success and it questions<br />

what you are willing to sacrifice to create the life you want.<br />

As this film is part of the <strong>DOK</strong>.Incubator workshop 2012<br />

and still in post-production, <strong>DOK</strong> Market presents only a trailer.<br />
