A dozen ambitious young adults train to realize their dreams of becoming professional dancers at New York City's American Ballet Academy.

ABSTRACT
Twelve young dancers united by their starry-eyed dreams of finding success as professionals enroll at New York City's American Ballet Academy; each are affected in different ways by the school's rigorous training methods. We follow Cooper, a wannabe choreographer courting controversy with mentor Jonathan, the gifted yet frustrated Maureen, struggling Jody, and opinionated Eva as they look to shine at their school's all-important showcase.
