Dancers and non-dancersalike can rejoiceat the announcement ofupcomingdancedocumentary DanceAsYou Are, a new project from Embattled producer Eryl Cochran.The film was shot almost exclusivelyon iPhones over60 days and is the first release from Cochrans newproductionlabel KEYKIX.

Dance As You Are centers on a group of 75 strangers, ages 23-74, who must come together to form six dance teams over the span of eight weeks. The participants in the documentary are not professional dancers, and some have never even danced before. As a result, the participants find themselves connecting over the shared experience of learning dance.

According to the press release, the participants of the documentary come from a diverse range of backgrounds. Audiences will see them work to overcome a handful of personal struggles over the course of their time together.One dancer tries to discover themselves outside the label of learning disability, while another dancer struggles with the loss of their child.

These personal events are all documented, as the subjects are asked to record themselves and their journeys. The documentary is designed to appeal to anyone regardless of dance experience.

Cochran serves as director, editor and producer, with Chris Hajian (The Infiltrator) composing.

In a time when society can feel divided, two of the events that help foster community are sports and music dance entails both, said Cochran. The mission behind this project is to highlight the power of community, and inspire audiences that its never too late to embrace the unknown and branch out of their comfort zone.
