Saltimbanque

The crowd, the music, the concrete. And then, a show. William’s show. As long as he can remember, he always wanted to dance. Lost kid in Dinard’s Saint-Alexandre district, William discovered breakdance and hip hop culture at the age of 12, then never left the street again. Spotted by Bboy Junior (world breakdancing champion with the group Wanted Posse) at a block party, he is impressed by William’s performance and decides to take him under his wing.

My take

A raw, energetic portrait of a young breakdancer finding his voice through hip hop culture on the streets. Visceral and alive, this is the kind of documentary that captures the pulse of urban creativity and the transformative power of finding your people.
