At first glance, the new film Leap! feels like an empowering story of an orphan making her dreams a reality. It is the late 19th century in France, and our heroine, Félicie (Elle Fanning), wants nothing so much as to escape from her orphanage and to be a dancer. As the film unspools, we watch her successes and failures as she pursues her dream.
Upon closer examination, however, the tale of empowerment is not a terribly strong one. At one moment in the film directed by Eric Summer and Eric Warin, Félicie is perfectly willing to abandon her best friend, Victor (Nat Wolff), at the orphanage as she tries a solo escape. The two appear to have an agreement to break out together, but Félicie is willing to cast him aside if she feels as though the opportunity is right. Later, in order to attend the ballet school, Félicie steals an admission letter and lies about her identity to use the letter.
