Ten years in the making, LIFT shines a spotlight on the invisible story of homelessness in America through the eyes of young homeless and home insecure ballet dancers. Guided by their mentor, Steven Melendez, who began his dance career in a shelter, these children make this aristocratic art form their own when they step from the shelter to the stage.
