Yuki is a junior high school girl who loves dancing. With her impaired hearing, she takes it for granted that she is and will always be alone. All that changes when she meets and is invited to join Jump Girls, a street dance team whose leader is Reina. As Yuki and her teammates work hard to take part in a major dance competition, she learns she can communicate through dance. Winner of the Special Jury Award at KidsFfest 2010 in Indonesia, “The Azemichi Road” is a sweet, uplifting coming-of-age drama about communication.
