Inspired by true events, it follows Ro, a failed dancer who returns home to meet her biological father for the first time and discovers unexpected wisdom from three unlikely friends in their eighties.
Through intimate performances, lush cinematography, and an honest exploration of belonging, Rhythm Is a Dancer celebrates the beauty and messiness of finding yourself — at any age.
