In a Chinese modern dance competition on TV one very
unique couple won one of the top prizes. The young woman,?in her 30's, was a
dancer who had trained since she was a little girl. Later in life, she lost her
entire left arm in an accident and fell into a state of depression.
Someone then asked her to coach a Children's dancing
group. From that point on, she realized that she could not give up her love for
dancing. So, she started to do some of her old routines. But, having lost her
arm, she also lost her balance. It took a while before she could even make
simple turns and spins without falling.
Then she heard of a man in his 20s, who had lost his
leg in an accident. He had also fallen into the usual denial, depression and
anger roller coaster. But, she was determined to find him and persuade him to
dance with her.
He had never danced!
But, she didn't give up, and he reluctantly agreed.
He said "I have nothing else to do anyway." She started to teach him
dancing. The two broke up a few times because he had no concept of using
muscle, how to control his body, and knew none of the basic rules about
dancing.
They hired a choreographer to design routines for
them.
In this competition, as you will see, they dance beautifully and they legitimately won the competition!
This is just a remarkable and heart-warming video of
two young people who succeeded in the face of adversity.
Performed by Ma Li (馬麗)
and Zhai Xiaowei (翟孝偉). The music is composed by San Bao, his works include the music of the film - The Road
Home directed by Zhang Yimou starred by Ziyi Zhang, this music is originally
from a very popular TV episodes in China, named Qian Shou (牵手 Hand in hand).
