A warm, resilience-focused drama about a dancer rebuilding her life and identity after betrayal and injury, anchored by themes of renewal and community.

Elise thought she had the perfect life: an ideal boyfriend and a promising career as a ballet dancer. It all falls apart the day she catches him cheating on her with her stage backup; and after she suffers an injury on stage, it seems like she might not be able to dance ever again.
