DANCE, THE (EL BAILE)

Touching story, well presented.

This coming of age tale is a love story about Andr�s who has a crush on a girl at school who he wants to dance with at the end of the year ball, but has a problem in that his shoe has a gaping hole in it and he has no money to buy a new pair. Andres has just an afternoon to repair his shoe or find a new pair and he does his best - which falls short. In the end, he discovers another girl who may be more suitable for him.

Well made. Beautiful script, lovely camera work, delightful acting. Andres, played by Juli�n V�squez Hern�ndez is particularly charming. The film is from Colombia, with dialogue in Spanish, English subtitled and definitely offers a theme that young people can relate to.

The film's message is to stand up for your own beliefs and don't let others put you down.

I give this film 4 out of 5 stars and recommend it for age 8 to 12, plus adults. By Julie S., KIDS FIRST!

Andr�s has a common and meaningful problem: his right shoe has a huge hole and it seems his toe is about to escape through it. Normally, this wouldn't be such a deal, but the school year-end ball takes place in less than a day and Mariana, the girl he likes, wants to dance with him. Andres has just an afternoon to repair his shoe or find a new pair: if he wants to impress her, he must be dashing.
