Synopsis

John Travolta, the ultimate dance icon, is looking for dancers and therefore organising worldwide auditions. Also in Belgium.

This is the chance for HELEEN. As her dancing partner she chooses JOHN, her ex-(dance) partner. KOEN, her new boyfriend, dislikes the idea. Heleen and John only have to look at one another and the old spark is back.

Has Heleen definitely broken with John and will she choose resolutely for Koen?
