No dancing, no living. Summer falls in love with ballroom dance and tries to attain perfection. She is completely dedicated to mastering the pas de deux by herself. Disillusioned with the superficiality of urban life and relationships, she channels all her passion into ballroom dancing, hoping to dispel her loneliness and radiate on the dance floor. Even as she finds some release for her pent-up lust, she wonders if the perfect dance partner she yearns forever exists. A late bloomer in dance, Summer finds herself pushing her limits under the tutelage of her coach, Tony. She dreams to compete at the prestigious Blackpool Dance Festival someday. Tony is her interim partner, but she knows deep down that she isn’t good enough to keep him around, nor can she over-rely on this partner in crime. They care for each other, but they also have their reservations.

只有跳舞讓她感覺活着。夏天把自己迫到極限,追求最完美的舞步,全心投入需要兩人互相信任的國標舞。在充滿虛偽情感的寂寞城市中產生活裏,她最終只願把愛投入舞蹈,把所有艱辛與傷痕,都轉化為從自己身體煥發出的夢幻光彩。她在舞蹈裏宣洩難解的情慾需求,卻又等待着也許永遠不會找到的,完美的舞伴。很晚才開始學舞的夏天,在教練東尼嚴格的教導下,不斷想挑戰極限,她夢想着有一天或許能到黑池參加國標舞公開賽。東尼是她的臨時舞伴,但她知道自己不夠好,留不住他,也知道不能過度依賴這位同志朋友。他們彼此關懷,卻又有所保留⋯⋯
