Fox Searchlight has acquired world rights to ‘Step’ a documentary about a Baltimore dance team in the charter school, The Baltimore Leadership School For Young Women.
About Step:
The Amanda Lipitz film is about the Baltimore Leadership School for Young Women that opened in 2009 with a mandate to send every student to college, despite the barriers that their home lives and community might present. Now, as the first class enters its senior year, the stakes are high to achieve that purpose. The film follows three irrepressible seniors and their “Lethal Ladies” step dance team as they navigate a nerve-wracking college application process and the trials and tribulations of the tenacious young women, as well as their mothers, an unstoppable college counselor, and a no-nonsense step coach.
