About the Film

“Calendar Girls”, Sweden/USA, 2022 84 min

A feel-good dance documentary directed and produced by Swedish filmmakers Maria Loohufvud and Love Martinsen. The love of dance and glitter bonds an unlikely group of 60-plus women in southwest Florida -The Calendar Girls. But under the veil of fake lashes and unicorn horns lurks the deeper truths of what again women face within society. Sisterhood, love, and loss – all come into play in this uplifting film about trying to age on your own terms and refuse to become invisible.
