EXCLUSIVE: Alberto Belli (The House Of Flowers) has been set to direct Latinx dance movie The Way You Move, which Tamara Nagahiro of Grandave International is selling at the Cannes virtual market.
The movie follows an inner-city teenager who gets in trouble at school and is forced to serve detention in the ballroom dance club. To his surprise he discovers that he loves to dance, but he must overcome a family tragedy and the ridicule of his friends before he can bring the rhythms of the street into the ballroom and express his own unique style.
Belli, a commercials and music video director, recently directed multiple episodes of Netflix’s Spanish-language series The House of Flowers. His debut feature, Gatlopp, is currently in post-production for Tea Shop Productions and Signature, and he is currently co-creating drama series Loteria which is in development with Sony Pictures Television for IMDB TV, with Norman Lear serving as executive producer.
Broken English Productions is producing with Grandave Capital financing. Filming is scheduled for fall 2021.
