Plot

In 2020, a video of Anthony Madu doing ballet in the rain went viral and was reposted and lauded by several American celebs. After that, Madu's family received a call from the Elmhurst Ballet School in England. The prestigious ballet academy recognised his talent and offered to train him for seven years.

The trailer shows how a 12-year-old boy struggles to achieve his dream. A dream which he always desired and a dream which has no limits. The story of Madu becomes even more challenging when he steps out from the community of Lagos, but he must go alone and reside in England, far from his family.

During his training, the young boy experiences various health issues, but he remains hopeful and determined to fight. Madu has a caring family, the support of those who admire his talent, and most importantly, a deep dedication and passion for his craft. Despite the challenges he faces, he remains focused on his goals and is determined to succeed.
