A Matter of Willpower 2025 Directed by Roxana Baloiu

Maddy facing a sea of doctors and appointments struggles to keep her size under control. Her safe space: THE DANCE FLOOR, where she can protect herself from the reality of the outside world and move freely to escape judgement in the shadows of the night. Only there she finds the courage to break the ice. That’s where an unexpected encounter shifts her world upside down.
