With compelling characters and vibrant dance sequences,
PLANET B-BOY is set in the International world of B-boying – the urban
dance more commonly known as “breakdancing.” Weaving between the vivid
backdrops of Osaka, Paris, Seoul and Las Vegas, unforgettable images
frame the intimate stories of dancers who struggle for their dreams
despite being misunderstood by larger society and even their own
families.
An American dancer in Vegas looks for his big break; a Korean son seeks
his father’s approval; a twelve-year-old boy in France confronts his
family’s racism – all the b-boys’ lives collide in Germany where their
skills are put to the ultimate test: the “Battle of the Year” finals,
with crews from 18 nations vying for the title of World Champion.
PLANET B-BOY features electrifying dance performances
and astonishing displays of power and grace, showing how a street dance
from New York has evolved into an inspiring art form for a new
generation around the world.
