Amali is a 19 year old girl living in Sri Lanka, where she is dancing the traditional dance: Kandy dance. Through the years, she has struggled with her feeling of self and with the acknowledgement of others, as well as dealing with whether to follow the "old" traditional way or the modern style of the dance. Now she is strong and has found her path.
