Brought to you by the Executive Producers of the highly acclaimed short film, TAP HEAT, this documentary follows leaders of the art form who are shaping the community around them.

Over 115 submissions were received from more than a dozen countries. The most compelling were chosen and weaved into the film alongside some of the Masters of Tap. The enthusiasm and support for this project clearly exemplifies the global growth appreciation and passion for Tap Dance.
