Synopsis

A former dancer Jonas pretends to be blind to enter a TV dance competition. He
meets his new dance partner Saulė who at first is disturbed by Jonas' disability,
but soon enough discomfort gives way to genuine interest and the couple
becomes the most popular contestants of the show. At the same time Vytas,
someone from Jonas' past, is released from prison after serving a sentence for
murdering his wife Marija. Vytas is afflicted with contradictory feelings: he is
convinced that his wife's ex-lover Jonas is equally responsible for her death.
