Romance, Drama

The true story of an unlikely romance in 1982 at a disco competition in Mysore, India.

A 1982 disco competition hosts the true and unlikely romance between Premi and Vasu — one an outsider from a tiny island in Africa and the other a show-off from a high caste family. With one in the audience and one dancing on stage, Premi and Vasu spark a romance that embodies the humanity and hope of those monikered as “immigrants” years before their eventual journey to the West.
