Artistic and authentic, this coming-of-age drama traces the trials and triumphs in the life of 'Tu', a talented young dancer from Auckland. He is disciplined, passionate and dedicated towards the fulfilment of his goal, which is to become a hip-hop dancer.
However, his passion makes him unwilling to spend the time and energy required to gain a university education or occupy himself with employment. At a critical juncture, his father becomes vexed with his behaviour and gives him an ultimatum of giving him a conclusive answer or enlisting in the army. What will the future hold in store for 'Tu'? Will he succeed in fulfilling his dream? What challenges must he face on the journey?
