Dancer in the Dark
Selma, a Czech immigrant on the brink of blindness, will undergo the same fate and struggles to make ends meet for himself and her son, who has endured the exact genetic ailment. When life gets too difficult, Selma learns to cope through her love of musicals, punishing life troubles - even though just for an instant - by dreaming numbers up to the rhythmic beats of her environments.
