編劇李·霍爾創作本片故事的靈感源於自己的童年回憶,在經歷了長達一年的醞釀後,霍爾僅用三周時間便完成了劇本初稿。在準備期間,霍爾曾潛心研究芭蕾藝術,為此他拜訪了英國皇家芭蕾舞學校,採訪了多位來自偏遠鄉村的舞蹈演員。BBC的監製泰莎·羅斯(Tessa Ross)和Tiger Aspect電影公司的製作人格雷格·布倫曼被霍爾筆下的感人故事深深打動了,後者隨即將劇本推薦給正在帶頭組建Working Title Films(曾出品過《諾丁山》、《伊麗莎白》和《四個婚禮和一個葬禮》)分支機構WT2的喬納森·芬。1999年,旨在培養英國影壇新人的WT2電影公司成立,而《舞動人生》被選為該公司的開山之作。
County Durham, during the endless, violent 1984 strike against the Thatcher closure of British coal mines. Widower Jackie Elliot and his firstborn, fellow miner Tony, take a dim view of 11 year-old second son Billy's poor record in boxing class, which worsens when they discover he sneakily transferred to the neighboring, otherwise girls-only-attended ballet class. Only one schoolmate, closet-gay Michael Caffrey, encourages Billy's desire, aroused by the teacher, who judged him talented enough for private lesson, to train and try out for the world-renowned Royal Ballet audition. Only the prospect of a fancy career unimagined in the pauper quarter may twist pa and big brother's opposition to indispensable support.
