Set in a cold winter, THE DAVID DANCE tells the story of siblings, David and Kate. David is the host of a local radio show called "Gay Talk", which usually focuses on such breezy topics as "Body-Piercing: Fashion or Faux Pas?". Outspoken in his radio persona, David is shy off the air. Kate is a thrice divorced banker with a yen for classical music and cats. Though they are both successful in their own right, they share a secret inadequacy about themselves. Kate decides to adopt an orphan in Brazil and asks David to be a father figure. Meanwhile, David grapples with his self-doubts while courting an amiable co-worker who also moonlights as a drummer for an all-lesbian rock band. Told from present to past and back again, we experience the bittersweet life of a man as he struggles to pull its colorful pieces together.

Directed with humor and sensitivity by Aprill Winney, THE DAVID DANCE is based on the play by Don Scime. Cinematography is by Ian McGlocklin Sinclair and original music is by Marc Jackson. For more information, please visit www.thedaviddance.com.
