Tiny Dancer: A Feature Film


Project Synopsis

Set against a backdrop of documentary style interviews with former dancers who are now mothers, Tiny Dancer explores the choices a woman must make in her adult life between her work and her family in a style that feels new and experimental, leading the audience on a journey that feels more fact than fiction. Told through the use of interviews and impressionistic dance pieces, Tiny Dancer is the story of Lauren Drake a legendary principal dancer whose career is cut short by the birth of her baby. Unfulfilled by motherhood and consumed by the desire to dance again, Lauren begins training to rejoin her company run by her former lover, Anton, who believes the only way to save his floundering company is by bringing Lauren back. Despite the warnings of her best friend, Sheila, Lauren gradually alienates her boyfriend, Ryan, her baby, and most dangerously, jeopardizes her health as she slips back into her destructive way of life on a dangerous journey to find herself.
