Get a taste of Hong Kong’s thriving street-dancing scene with this high-energy, low-budget gem that took local box offices by storm. Cherry Ngam was nominated for a Golden Horse Award for her performance as Fleur, a young woman whose pop-locking daydreams propel her from her family’s humble tofu shop to college. There she joins a hip-hop dance crew and enlivens their routines with an injection of tai chi. "A cracking spectacle that showcases some of Hong Kong’s best street dancers" (The Hollywood Reporter). (Dir.: Adam Wong, Hong Kong, 2013, 110 min., D-Cinema, Cantonese with Chinese and English subtitles)
