Step

The doc follows a high school step team as they make their way to the top competition in their area.

The school is in a generally poorer class area with varying levels of poverty and struggles. The film focuses on a few of the older girls and their personal stories. One gal’s mom is the PUREST FORM of a helicopter mom, demanding a presence on the team at each and every practice. Another girl’s mom won’t even leave the house for a parent-teacher conference even though her daughter begs.

We see their very real struggle to hone their routine in order to win. Per usual, there are highs, lows, and lots of feels - though I saw this in air it was a real treat.
