The Rising Sun
If you want to start a new life, first you have to give up the old one. - An so begins the journey of a lifetime for the eight members of Roc Kidz Crew. Unspectacular in a colourfully painted bus, this multicultural group heads south on the search for a new life. Roc Kidz Crew is a break dance group comprising 6 different nationalities, all of wohm dicovered this particular form of dance sometime between the 1980 and 1990s.
One is a solo artist at the Circque Du Soleil, another has been immortalised in the Playstation game B-Boy, equipped with the title of world champion and a date with a Hollywodd blockbuster dance film. Their journey is alredy unforgettable; it has already enriched the the life of these dancers immeasurably.
But then the moment came. The eight dancers left behind their ordinary life, quit their flats, sold their surplus belongings in order to shoulder a rucksack and set off in a new direction - together as best friends, as a crew, as dancers. It`s not a journey that will fill their pockets or bring them fame, but more than that, it will bring them heart - and the hearts of others. The question stood before them: what are we dancing for? And for whom? What is it that we`er reallylooking for? A journey, a life, which consisted only of the bare necessities and was full of surprises and positive experiences in whatever country the group happened to be passing through.
That this journey will be an important experience for each members was clear from the start. That`s why a camera was always present; filming this special road trip that mainly traversed southern Europe.
