Put on your sequins for Baz Luhrmann’s infectious break-through Australian hit – a glittering spectacle that introduced his overindulgent style to the world. Scott is a ballroom impresario with his own, unconventional style. Rather than conform to the rigid restraints his partner and the establishment demand, he opts to train an amateur to dance with him at the National Championships. Can their partnership lead to a win, a romance, or both? Whatever happens, with Baz Luhrmann at the helm, you know it’s going to be a show-stopper. Dazzling, quirky, romantic, and over-the-top in true Luhrmann fashion – this wonder from down under is ready to win you over all over again!
