Leap! | SFDFF 2025

An orphan girl dreams of becoming a ballerina and flees her rural Brittany for Paris, where she passes for someone else and becomes a pupil at the Grand Opera House.

Bring the whole family for a free screening of the animated feature film Leap!, a heartwarming adventure about courage, friendship, and following your dreams. Set in 19th-century Paris, the story follows Félicie, a spirited orphan determined to become a ballerina, and her best friend Victor, an aspiring inventor. Together they escape their orphanage and chase their passions in the City of Lights, where Félicie must summon all her determination to pursue the role of a lifetime at the Paris Opera Ballet.

Perfect for aspiring young artists, this event will include an introduction by San Francisco Ballet Principal Dancer Jennifer Stahl. Suggested donation of $15/person. Registration is required.
