Shall We Dance? (Dansu)

Shall We Dance is the story of Sugiyama, an over-worked, middle-aged accountant whose trip home from the office every night takes him past a building where a beautiful woman stares out of a window. When he finally gets up the nerve to investigate, Sugiyama learns that the fourth floor of the building houses a ballroom dancing school. Eager to take lessons from Mai, the woman in the window, he signs up for classes. Rebuffed in his romantic advances, Sugiyama develops a new, but secretive, passion for dancing. (Suzanne Hodges)
