"JUMP! has all the right moves" – The Hollywood Reporter
An award-winning, rousing, and fast-paced documentary about competitive jump rope, JUMP! follows five teams from around the United States who push their physical and psychological limits in pursuit of winning the World Rope Skipping Championship. The sport is part extreme athletics, part art form and the kids create masterfully choreographed moves that burst with rhythm, sweat and originality. Throughout drilling and mind-boggling performances, these unexpected trailblazers reveal what makes them tick and what sets each of them apart. In the end, determination, rivalry and collaboration converge with dramatic and unexpected results.
Featuring an up-beat soundtrack shaped by renowned DJ Garth Trinidad and a fresh style, JUMP! is a powerful, energetic and inspirational film about discovering what it truly means to be the best.
"Brilliant…. I am ready to go buy a jump rope right this second…. I genuinely loved this documentary….[T]his story deserves to be seen." – Film Threat
"lively and inspiring" – Filmmaker Magazine
"Seeing JUMP! with my students was one of the best field trip experiences I've ever had in my 30 years of work with inner-city kids. This film crossed all barriers." -– Ms Refoua, Teacher, Los Angeles Unified School District
