SYNOPSIS:

Manish is a talented and athletic street dancer from Mumbai who dreams of becoming a professional against the wishes of his struggling parents. He meets a curmudgeonly Israeli ballet master who gives him the determination to keep going. Not just a story about dance, this film, shot in Israel, India, the U.K. and New York, is about human aspirations, challenges and relationships that touch the heart.
