| Surprisingly interesting and inspiring documentary about the first “Senior Dance Team” of the N.J. Nets basketball team. Covers the first season from tryouts to last performance.
| About 3 years ago the New Jersey Nets decided to add a dance team to their intermission program. They put a small ad into the “Bergen Record” asking for people 60 and older to audition. By simple good luck, which seems to be how many documentaries get made, Dorrie Berenstein saw the ad, grabbed her camera and showed up for the audition. This is their amazing story. One man and 12 women, from 60 to 82, let it rip across the floor in front of thousands of basketball fans and became instant sweethearts to the fans. It is joyous, inspiring and heartwarming.
Screened at the Sarasota Film Festival
