A bittersweet musical comedy about small-town dancers experiencing a fleeting moment of stardom and connection with American soldiers, only to face the melancholy of its inevitable end.

The lives of two local professional dancers change suddenly as American soldiers stop in their town hoping to be entertained in accordance with the Broadway style. Effectively, they perform up to their expectations. However, as the army men have to march northward, their moment of glory finishes heartlessly.
