The three of them : Lukas, Syvert and Torgeir have already had to sacrifice many of the usual joys of being regular teenage boys and having fun with their other mates for the sake of their dedication to their art. In Syvert’s case he has also been neglecting his academic school work too and may not even be able to graduate. They are all very likable boys whose charm and enthusiasm comes shining through in all the talking head interviews, and they all very innocently are so unsure of what could/should happen next.
Of the three, Lukas is unquestionable the star, and although he had no intention of auditioning at the prestigious Royal Ballet School in London, they invite him anyway and so he pirouettes his way into being offered one of the few rare places. Despite the honor of his talent being recognised in this way, he is still in two minds whether to accept the offer. The other boys have been offered places with the local Ballet Company which will give them a great training and a BA degree, and plus its free for Norwegians. Going abroad however means saying goodbye to all of that, and not just leaving home but handing his parents a 70000 euro annual tuition fees which may not all be covered by scholarships. When you see the genuine angst on his face, you suddenly remember that the boy has only just celebrated his 15th birthday.
