Synopsis

In September 2007, 16 of the world’s best b-boys battle one on one in a disused power station in the heart of Soweto, South Africa, to determine who will be the next world champion. ‘Turn it Loose’ is a film about this competition.
From backstage at the Red Bull BC ONE in Soweto, to the backstreets of Senegal, Japan, Algeria, America, France and Brazil, TURN IT LOOSE combines human drama with the visual intensity of the dance, revealing the passion, sweat and artistry needed to compete at the highest levels. 16 dancers battle it out. Only one will win. This is a dance film like no other. Global. Musical. Soulful.
