Check out this trailer for the documentary film Calendar Girls which first premiered at Sundance earlier this year. I missed it at the festival, sadly, but looking at this new promo, I cannot wait to see it when it lands at future festivals or upon release.
The film focuses upon a Florida dance troupe specifically for women over 60. Here are the official details:
They’re 60+ and out to prove that age is just a number. Surely one of Florida’s hardest working dance teams, the Calendar Girls perform for fundraising events and kick up their heels in parades. It all adds up to more than 100 performances a year. They also find the time to craft elaborate candy-colored costumes, complete with personalized headgear. Against this busy backdrop, the like-minded women negotiate their sunset years while challenging society’s perceptions. The enthusiasm of their performances underscores their pride and determination, as the troupers live their lives to the fullest.
No set release date as yet but we’ll keep you posted.
Here’s the trailer.
