Call Me Dancer

1h 24m Music/Dance/Entertainment 2023

A live-your-dream story from the streets of Mumbai to the stages of New York. Manish is an athletic hip-hop dancer who struggles against his hard-working parents’ insistence that he follow a traditional career path. When he accidently walks into a dance class and encounters a curmudgeonly Israeli ballet master, a hunger develops within him. Ambitious and passionate, Manish is now determined to make it as a professional dancer, but the odds are stacked against him. When pitted against his parents’ wishes, he’s forced to push himself to his physical limits to prove he has what it takes. A story of perseverance, rebellion, family and an unlikely friendship.
