Five Days to Dance

By Rafa Molés and Pepe Andreu

Monday morning, choreographers Wilfried Van Poppel and Amaya Lubeigt appear in a San Sebastián high school in Spain, to work with students who have never danced before. The two have FIVE DAYS TO DANCE; motivating a classroom full of teenagers to train and perform a complex choreographed work. The week pushes the teenagers outside of their comfort zones, as they deal with social and academic pressures from parents, teachers and most of all, their peers.

Can they rise to these challenges and be ready for the performance?
