B-boys, B-girls, and dance-lovers- get excited! The movie BGirl is going to drop soon! This is the world’s FIRST legit movie about a B-GIRL! “Legit” as in high-quality movie, not a small documentary. This is great to provide additional exposure to b-girls across the world! B-girls have been in existence since the 80’s, but they have been a tiny, undetected population by most. It has only been through the impact of recent large-scale media such as Step Up, Step Up II, Missy Elliot’s music videos, and America’s Next Best Dance Crew (in particular Beat Freaks) that have put b-girls on the map and exposed the masses to the amazing athleticism and creativity involved in breaking.
This movie I think will provide the opportunity for even more people to learn about this sport and subculture and hopefully inspire females to get involved (in this traditionally male-dominated activity).
Here is a trailer:
I was honored to find the clip below on YouTube and find that the director was first inspired to create this movie after watching OUR all female breaking crew get down in San Francisco!!!!!!! (mentioned around 40 seconds into the clip)
