By a quiet gas station in rural Buenos Aires, a young kid, Ernesto, confesses to his friend that he wants to be a dancer when he grows up. But in the patriarchal flatlands of Argentina, dancing isn't really an option.

Charmingly mischievous, Ruby challenges him to a fateful dance off; one that will ultimately and forever encourage him to follow his dancing dreams.
