There's something in the air. It might be love... but it isn't.

Scott Hastings (Paul Mercurio) is a brilliant young dancer forced to find a new partner when his usual accomplice gets tired of his improvising. Scott chooses klutzy novice Fran (Tara Morice) to share steps, then manages to transform her into a first-class carpet-cutter. Bill Hunter, Pat Thomson co-star in Baz Luhrmann's directorial debut.
