Leap!

Set in 1880s Paris, Leap! (also known as Ballerina) follows Félicie, a determined young orphan who escapes her rural orphanage with her inventive best friend, Victor, to pursue her dream of becoming a professional dancer. After arriving in Paris and getting separated from Victor, Félicie impulsively assumes the identity of a wealthy, spoiled rival named Camille to gain admission into the prestigious Paris Opera Ballet School. Under the strict guidance of Odette, a former prima ballerina turned caretaker, Félicie learns the discipline and technique needed to match her raw passion as she competes for the lead role in The Nutcracker. Although her deception is eventually uncovered, her resilience and true love for dance ultimately inspire those around her and allow her to prove she belongs on stage.
