Brief synopsis
From a small one-bedroom apartment in Oslo, Amalie and her boyfriend Mikael dream about an international breakthrough in the big world of street dance. When their crew “Illicit” is selected to compete in a renowned dance competition in Paris, they finally get their chance.
In Paris, life starts to unravel. The crew realize they have to revamp their routine or they don’t stand a chance. Meanwhile, Amalie is distracted, searching for her estranged mother who lives in Paris and runs a ballet school. Her stage presence suffers as she botches the crew’s new moves and tensions within the crew rise. They confront Amalie and she comes to the devastating realization that she no longer has a part in the crew. But as she searches for her mother, she stumbles upon an underground dance club where she can be free and rekindle her passion for dancing.
Torn between the love of Mikael, the longing for her absent mother, and her passion for dance, Amalie must choose. Who is she to become?
