Overview

Twice every day, rain hail or shine. That's how often the dancers at Donhuan Lu gather to exercise in the plaza. The music and the moves are hard to pass by, and the personalities are even more captivating! "Happy Dance" is a short exploration of the phenomenon that is 广场舞, and how it turns ordinary neighbours into good friends.
