Footloose
There comes a time to cut loose
Directed by Craig Brewer
Produced by Weston Pictures, Dylan Sellers Productions
An uplifting, music-driven teen romance about breaking free from repression and finding joy through dance and connection in a conservative small town.
Ren MacCormack is transplanted from Boston to the small southern town of Bomont where loud music and dancing are prohibited. Not one to bow to the status quo, Ren challenges the ban, revitalizing the town and falling in love with the minister’s troubled daughter Ariel in the process.
