A passionate, visually stunning drama about a young dancer caught between ambition, forbidden desire, and the weight of tradition and family expectation in a homophobic society.

Merab, a devoted dancer, has been training for years with his partner Mary for a spot in the National Georgian Ensemble. The arrival of another male dancer, Irakli, sparks both an intense rivalry and romantic desire that may cause Merab to risk his future in dance as well as his relationships.
