Produced in collaboration with some of the greatest dancers and musicians of their age, this feature documentary, which took 7 years to produce, tells the extraordinary story of how Irish dance evolved from being the traditional dance of the Irish to become a hugely loved, global phenomenon.
As it celebrates the brilliance of the form, Steps of Freedom reveals how the way the Irish dance developed over centuries through encounters with many other cultures and ethnicities from Africa to America to Europe and Britain. Irish dance then is a global dance, shared and shaped by millions.
Steps of Freedom features original dance sequences filmed throughout Ireland and in the US, original music composed by Colm Mac An Iomaire and performances and contributions from living legends including Morgan Bullock, Cormac Begley, Rhiannon Giddens, Jean Butler, Leni Sloan, Dewitt Fleming, Edwina Guckian, the Gardiner brothers, Stephanie Keane, Siobhán Manson and Liam O Maonlaí.
