Plot

John Clark is a successful lawyer who leads a seemingly perfect life with his wife Beverly and their two children. However, he feels a void and yearns for something more. One evening during his commute home from work, he notices a beautiful woman, Paulina, staring out of a dance studio window. Intrigued by her melancholy and the allure of dance, John impulsively decides to sign up for ballroom dance lessons at Miss Mitzi's Dance Studio, where Paulina turns out to be an instructor. Initially embarrassed and hesitant, John becomes captivated by the world of competitive dance and starts to find joy and balance in his life through his new hobby.

As John becomes more involved with dance, he befriends his quirky fellow students and begins to keep his new passion a secret from his family and colleagues. His progression as a dancer helps him build confidence and reignites his sense of purpose. Meanwhile, Beverly, noticing John's mysterious absences and changed demeanor, grows suspicious and hires a private investigator to find out what he’s been up to. The investigation leads to unexpected revelations and forces John to confront his true feelings and priorities.
