Complex, raw and burdened by years of grief, Dawn's at a pivotal moment: crafting a funeral wreath for someone she’d rather not talk about. The task softens her... and suddenly she opens up, perhaps for the first time in her life. What follows is a story stitched with sequins and steeped in legacy of freestyle disco, ferocious dance mums and the resilience it takes to keep dancing when you fall. She taught a generation of working-class girls in the 90s not just how to thrive, but how to lose and not cry.
