- Synopsis:
- Directed by the renowned photographer and music director David LaChapelle, "Rize" reveals a groundbreaking aggressive and visually stunning dance phenomenon that's exploding on the streets of South Central, Los Angeles. Using the expression of dance as an alternative to gangs and hustling, this incredible group of kids have somehow managed to rise up to reveal immense spirit and creativity. They have created art - and often family - where before there was none. Taking advantage of unprecedented access, David LaChapelle's enlightening documentary brings to first light a revolutionary form of artistic expression borne from oppression.
