Scarlett Soundtrack (2016)
Synopsis
Amputation takes as much of an emotional toll as a physical one - especially for a child. "Scarlett" depicts the powerful true story of perseverance in the face of adversity through the eyes of a young girl who lost her leg to Ewing Sarcoma, a bone cancer that primarily occurs in children. Scarlett overcomes the struggle of adapting to her physical limitations and feelings of isolation through her love of dance, and achieves a sense of adolescent normalcy that uplifts those around her. Scarlett's story was created by force of will with a team of powerful women - Scarlett's grandmother Solange, who wanted to start a Foundation, Scarlett's Tia - Chef Grace Ramirez, who challenged her friend Mary Nittolo to create a narrative that speaks to the trauma of pediatric cancer and limb loss - STUDIO concept artist and co-director Alison Abitbol and above all, the inspiration herself - Scarlett.
