"At's Amore" - that's love.Love is a dance. Sometimes we dance together, sometimes apart, but always connected. The music changes, the steps change, we change. For dance instructor Shelly and her student Alan, the dance of love is literal as well as figurative. Their dance flows smoothly until her past, and his future, break them apart. To revive their dance, each must make changes. She must find her way forward... and he must find his way back.
