It creeps through the streets and up through the floor she stands on, inside the soles of her shoes, it tickles her toes, her feet must dance, they are not able to stop, it’s as if the song is dancing with her rather than the other way around. But where is the sound coming from? In Sofia Finds a Song we’re taken on an adventure to find a melody with magnetic powers. Because when you find your own song, it is yours forever.
