a Summary, etc Reveals a groundbreaking dance phenomenon that's exploding on the streets of South Central, Los Angeles. Taking advantage of unprecedented access, this documentary film bring to first light a revolutionary form of artistic expression borne from oppression. The aggressive and visually stunning dance modernizes moves indigenous to African tribal rituals and features mind-blowing, athletic movement sped up to impossible speeds. We meet Tommy Johnson (Tommy the Clown), who first created the style as a response to the 1992 Rodney King riots and named it Clowning, as well as the kids who developed the movement into what they now call Krumping. The kids use dance as an alternative to gangs and hustling: they form their own troupe and paint their faces like warriors, meeting to outperform rival gangs of dancers or just to hone their skills. For the dancers, Krumping becomes a way of life--and, because it's authentic expression (in complete opposition to the bling-bling hip-hop culture), the dance becomes a vital part of who they are.

a Summary, etc Documentary film that chronicles the practice of "Clowning" and "Krumping", radical, energetic, and vividly extreme dance forms that have taken on enormous importance for black communities in south-central Los Angeles on many levels: as serious forms of spiritual and artistic expression, as alternatives to gang participation, as a means for knitting social fabric. Various personalities within the dance movements are profiled.

a Summary, etc "Dans Ateşi", Los Angeles sokaklarında büyük patlama yapan ve artık bir fenomen haline gelmiş nefesleri kesen eşsiz bir dansın hikayesini anlatıyor.Uyuşturucu, çeteler ve yoksullukla çevrili bir dünyada günlük olarak geliştirilen ve eşi benzeri olmayan "Dans Ateşi", büyük bir ruh ve yaratıcılıkla yükselişe geçmeyi başarıyor.
