Love Tomorrow

This movie is beautifully done with a lot of dance performances. I did not really enjoy this movie, but I think a person interested in classical dance would find it excellent.

The pacing is slow as a result of all the musical emphasis and can easily come off as boring. It doesn't help that the story is disjointed. Not only is the story interspersed between dance scenes, it also contains several flashbacks and it doesn't begin to make sense until closer to the end.

These are two dancers with sad back stories and they connect for 24 hours. It's clear from early on that Maya has suffered something that has led her into a day of desperate escape to the point of spending the night on the couch of a complete stranger and following him from one thing to another in his life for that day.

Set in a 24 hour time frame this is simply a seamlessly beautiful 80 minutes - how on earth Chris Payne manages to move from story line to dance and back again without the invariable 'step' in and out is masterly . Cindy Jourdain is such a natural actress and refined dancer . Arionel Vargas brought a humour and subtle machismo to his acting and dance scenes he really is a face for the future. The heavy Cuban influence brings colour and comedy throughout the film , and Cinematography was top notch augmenting every scene. The music choices throughout the movie were inspiring and well thought through . Even the final solo dance scene by Jourdain as the credits rolled was an absolute joy to watch - it was simply a stunning experience start to finish. Well done everyone involved .

This is unlike any dance movie I have ever seen. It is grounded in a difficult personal experience of a young woman struggling in a big city. Upon learning devastating news, she encounters a charismatic young man who turns out to be her saving grace for a 24 hour period.

I highly recommend this if you like independent film personal storytelling. The plot surprised me several times and the ending was just right. I was sorry when it ended and wanted more. This is also suitable family viewing with older children or teens. Sit back and enjoy!
