DANCE WITH ME
Said (18) is the golden boy of Amsterdam's Moroccan community and his father's pride and joy. Talented, adored, destined for great things. But behind the promise is a secret he can barely admit to himself: he is falling in love with Alex, a young man from a different world. The higher Said climbs, the more he has to lose. As he navigates his family's expectations, the loyalty of his friends, and his own desire, the life built around him begins to crack. When the truth surfaces, he risks losing it all — his father's pride, his place in the community, the future everyone imagined for him. What remains is the question of who he is when the cheering stops.
Dance with Me is a coming-of-age drama set in the streets of Amsterdam, about identity, belonging, and the courage to live an honest life.
