Strictly Ballroom, the dazzling debut film by director Baz Luhrmann, invites audiences into the high-stakes, glamorous world of competitive ballroom dancing.
Paul Mercurio stars as Scott Hastings, a gifted dancer whose bold, unconventional moves threaten to shake up the rigid traditions of the sport. Opposite him is Tara Morice as Fran, a seemingly unremarkable beginner who surprises everyone with her determination and untapped talent. Supported by a vibrant cast, including Bill Hunter as the no-nonsense competition organizer and Pat Thomson as Scott’s perfectionist mother, the film blends humor, drama, and electrifying dance sequences.
A celebration of individuality and the courage to break free from the norm, Strictly Ballroom is a visually stunning and deeply heartfelt journey.
