Private Project

Grandma's Smile

During a dance rehearsal, high school student Ah Ting accidentally stepped on the wrong foot and fell to the ground while trying to challenge a difficult dance move, resulting in a sprained joint. This made Ah Ting start to doubt herself, and her jealous teammates complained that she was slowing down her training progress. Even though her foot injury has not healed, Ah Ting gritted her teeth and continued to practice. However, her teammates ridiculed her and failed to keep up with the progress, which made Ah Ting question her dancing talent. Facing all kinds of difficulties, Ah Ting's heart almost collapsed and when she decided to give up dancing, she was reminded of the reason why she liked dancing...
