Big Moves

About This Movie

Big Moves dives into the journey of Sarah Grant, a Glasgow filmmaker who reclaims her ability to dance after years of being told she couldn't due to her size. The film feels intimate, almost like you're peeking into someone's personal diary, as it unfolds through the lens of the pandemic's Zoom dance classes. The pacing is reflective, allowing moments of vulnerability and humor to breathe between movements. It's not just about dance; it's a rich exploration of body positivity, self-acceptance, and the societal norms that box us in. The practical effects are minimal, which keeps the focus on Sarah's evolving relationship with her body. You really sense her joy and struggle, making it distinctively relatable and human.
