Dancer (France) (festival title) (UK) (working title)
Billy Elliot (France)

Inside every one of us is a special talent waiting to come out. The trick is finding it.
The life of 11-year-old Billy Elliot (Jamie Bell) a coal-miner’s son is forever changed one day when he stumbles upon a ballet class during his weekly boxing lesson. Before long he finds himself demonstrating the kind of raw talent seldom seen by the class’ exacting instructor (Julie Walters).
