Honey
Her dream. Her terms.
Directed by Bille Woodruff
Produced by NuAmerica Entertainment, Universal Pictures
An energetic, character-driven drama about a young hip-hop choreographer navigating ambition, exploitation, and empowerment in New York City.
Honey Daniels dreams of making a name for herself as a hip-hop choreographer. When she's not busy hitting downtown clubs with her friends, she teaches dance classes at a nearby community center in Harlem, N.Y., as a way to keep kids off the streets. Honey thinks she's hit the jackpot when she meets a hotshot director casts her in one of his music videos.
