CALENDAR GIRLS
CALENDAR GIRLS is a coming-of-golden-age film. Following senior volunteer dancers in Southwest Florida, who are determined to prove that age is just a number, The Calendar Girls give it all they’ve got. And they have a lot to give impressive makeup; handmade costumes; elaborate dance routines; and, most notably, their unparalleled enthusiasm and sparkling personalities. Through revealing conversations and choreographed dance scenes the film captures the challenges of being a woman over 60 and the delicate balance of family, home, and dance. With laughter and tears, relationships and identities change as new dreams are discovered. Sundance Film Festival, Hot Docs Film Festival, Bergamo Film Festival Audience Award Best Documentary.
