WORK IN PROGRESS

A true story of one house, an inner urban dance studio. The studio, "Planet Funk," fights a campaign to "shut them down," spearheaded by "Eyes of Texas" Ray Miller and U.S. Senate Task Force Orlando Sanchez. Located in an all white upper class neighborhood, the multi-cultural dance studio faces "de-facto segregation" and finds strength in each other to overcome all odds.

Dance / Docu-Drama

105 minutes

A first time director, Shawn Welling debuts this heart felt true story about the people and place that are the real creators of this film. Recently Welling and his studio have been on Good Morning America, Oprah Winfrey, and hired as Entertainment by Cirque du Soleil (Dralion tour).
