Santo Domingo Waltz
The story of the only three males among 20 teenagers in a ballet class, exploring prejudice in Dominican culture and themselves.
2021 · 1h 16m · N/A Documentary
Overview
Three teen ballet students — Raymundo, Angel and Victor — are the only boys in a class of twenty. In a country where dance is mostly considered an activity for women, they are determined to follow their dreams and challenge traditional gender roles. Like a waltz, music played in triple time, the three boys move through Santo Domingo while confronting, yet sometimes abiding by, the Dominican machismo culture.
