Prima Gina, Ballerina

Gina dreams of being a ballerina, but people doubt her because of her size. When a snooty ballet studio turns her away for lessons, she enters a dance competition to prove her mettle. Through courage and determination, Gina shows that dance is for all bodies—and inspires other kids to join her in creating a dance space where everyone is welcome. Prima Gina is a tale about body positivity, inclusion, and not letting the close-mindedness of others stand in the way of your dreams.
