A hopeful look into peace between Palestinian and Israeli children, renown ballroom dance champion, Pierre Dulaine goes home to Jaffa, a divided city. With modern Tel-Aviv in the background, Dulaine explores Jaffa, Tel-Aviv's more ancient sister city bringing ballroom dancing to 5 schools with the hope that Jewish and Palestinian children (and their parents) will realize that through dance they have more in common than issues that separate them. The turning point may be a wonderful scene where he brings a former partner, (a wonderful women, Yvonne-- think Audrey Hepburn), and to the awed expression of the kids, dances around the former bomb shelter as if on clouds! There are personal stories which tug at heartstrings, but also small triumphs which make this a film very much worth viewing.
