Call Me Dancer

הודו / בריטניה / ארצות הברית 2023, 84 דקות, אנגלית והינדית, כתוביות בעברית

לחלום הכי רחוק שאפשר – זאת הייתה תוכנית הפעולה של מניש צ'והן, רקדן רחוב ממומבאי. אמנם בתרבות ההודית יש לתנועה מקום משמעותי, אך הוריו חוששים כי הוא מהמר על עתידו. הרעב של מניש לריקוד, יחד עם דחיפה מהמנטור שלו יהודה מאור, מובילים אותו ללהקת מחול בישראל ומשם לניו יורק, עם קפיצה באמצע לבוליווד, עד שיוכיח לכולם כי ריקוד הוא גם מקצוע וגם הגשמה. סיפור מעורר השראה על מרדנות, הקרבה וחברות אמת, וכוכב במה אחד שמפזר קסם עם כל פוינט ופליק-פלאק באוויר.
