Movies such as Beat Street and Breakin' put breakdancing in the spotlight in the '80s. But the art has evolved in the last 20 years, and dancers need more than a polyester track suit, a piece of cardboard, and some upper-body strength — they need cojones grandes to achieve the mad athletic bravado audiences expect these days.

Vocalist Karina Nistal, H-town rappers Nosaprise and Savvi, and DJs Akshun Kid and Remix will perform after the film. Things start popping at 7 p.m.
