The thrill of skating competitions and parties filled with music and dancing adds a touch of energy and dynamism to their everyday lives.
However, life isn't always easy: Rashad grapples with the loss of his father and the effects it has on his family, while economic troubles threaten to break the bond between friends. The story's climax will lead each of them to confront their fears and make decisions that will shape their future, reminding them that, despite adversities, what matters most is staying true to oneself and to those they love.
