Flex Is Kings

FLEX IS KINGS is a riveting, awe-inspring look inside the world of "flexing", a type of street dance native to Brooklyn. Shot in the neighborhood of East New York at the end of a handful of subway lines, the film profiles young men struggling to express themselves and create a positive force in their commuinty in the face of high crime rates and few opportunities for advancement. Directors Deidre Schoo and Michael Beach Nichols take audiences along on the emotional journey of several dancers including Flizzo, and unconventional and charismatic showman, and Jan Donn, the innovative auteur, as they vie to make something of themselves by battling it out through this explosive DIY art form.
