When it comes to dancing, there are lots of types of dance. Some of them are connected with dancing schools and competitions, and others are simply there for enjoying, although there aren't any normative steps or anything like that. Coming from Baz Luhrmann, who was the director, as well as one of the writers, this amazing Australian movie will captivate you for about hour and a half. One of the main characters is Scott Hastings, a son of dance winners and now owners of one of the most famous and high quality dancing schools, Shirley and Doug Hastings (Pat Thomson and Barry Otto). Scott is amazingly talented and taught, but he believes in dancing his own steps. He doesn't agree with most of what his controlling mother does and he can't get his mind to be heard. So, before one of the championships, he changes his long time partner, Liz (Gia Carides), because she is sick and tired of him dancing his own steps. As the whole Australian dance community sees that he is doing his own thing no matter what, Barry Fife (Bill Hunter), one of the chairmen, gets to have a talk with him, which leads Scott to think that his father made the same mistake. Now, Scott is in a dilemma whether he should be living his dream or do what he is expected to. Throughout this whole movie, there is a romance between him and a pretty unknown girl that works in the school as a cleaning lady, young Fran (Tara Morice), who turns out to be more than talented dancer.
