Dancing on Fire

In 1928, in the pre-oil era, during the rainfall dance celebrations, love grows between Amoosh and Nafla, who fights to marry him despite her family’s disapproval. Her attempts to blend in with his family fail while he’s absent on long trading trips, leaving her lonely and depriving her of dancing, her sole source of joy. Nafla confronts difficult choices.
