Bootmen background

Bootmen

A disillusioned steel mill worker discovers a fresh passion for tap dancing, eventually forming a unique troupe that sets them apart with their signature hardhat attire.

Sean Okden, a former tap-dancer, starts a new group in his hometown of Newcastle, Australia, after being fired from a show in Sydney. He incorporates steel mill elements into their performances, including welding metal onto their shoes and dancing on industrial steel, which fits well with a local rock group. The group, "Bootmen," faces financial struggles and must resort to unconventional methods to gain media attention, including stealing the cheerleaders' podium during a televised sports match.
