Synopsis

The unlikely collaboration between a veteran choreographer and a young actor with cerebral palsy delivers astonishing proof that each and every body is capable of miraculous transformation. As Tamar Rogoff trains Gregg Mozgala to become a dancer, they discover that her lack of formal medical training and his fears and physical limitations are not obstacles, but the impetus for their unprecedented discoveries.

Enter The Faun is the story of a joyous, obsessive journey towards opening night. It challenges the boundaries of medicine and art, as well as the limitations associated with disability.
