Right in the middle of Rome boiling in the Sun, a young boy meets a mysterious girl, who is wearing a ballet dancer costume. This short film reminds us that it is worth pursuing your goals in life. Why Don’t I Dance on the Streets is an allegorical and witty tale about the reluctance to accept reality, the contemporary pursuit of desires, and the cult of beauty.
