While We've Still Got Feet Poster

While We've Still Got Feet: Directed by Eliot Kimball. With Dan Cordle, Louisa Potter-Smith. While We've Still Got Feet is an absolute treat of a film. Combining drama and comedy, the film follows Charles, a lonely 61-year-old man who must overcome his grief when his rambunctious 9-year-old niece, Rosie, enters them both into a local dance competition. While seemingly indifferent towards life, under the surface, Charles is crippled by a sense of longing for his partner, Marty, who died from AIDS in the 90s. Through wistful dancing, relics of their relationship, and ethereal music from iconic cellist Arthur Russell, viewers get an intimate window into Charles' debilitating cycle of grief. Introduce Rosie: his sprightly, frivolous, and incredibly draining 9-year-old niece who comes to live with him for the fall while her parents are getting a divorce. Rosie has an insatiable love for cartwheels and dancing, and when she finds a flyer in the park for a children's dance competition at a local toy store, she is absolutely captivated. Intuitively sensing a need to spark up Charles' life, Rosie becomes relentless in her pursuit of winning the dance competition with her 61-year-old dance partner and uncle, Charles. The prize is a hot pink Jeep, after all.
