What is 10DANCE about, and who stars in it?
The movie 10DANCE is about two professional dancers whose lives come into contact with each other due to rivalry and ambition in a dance competition. The plot is around Shinya Suzuki, a character played by Ryoma Takeuchi, who is a disciplinarian and perfectionist Latin Dance champion and is fiercely determined to keep the top spot of Japan’s competitive rankings.
Besides, the main character of the film is Shinya Sugiki, who is played by Keita Machida. He is the one who holds the title of Japan’s Ballroom champion and ranks second in the world. Sugiki dares Suzuki to take part in the 10-Dance, a challenging dance-off that is a requirement for the mastery of both Latin and Ballroom styles.
It is also about the two dancers who are gearing up for a contest to train, vie, and learn from each other, and as a result, their professional rivalry will muffle the personal relationship between them. This relationship dynamic, which has been the subject of fans of the manga for a long time, is the emotional link that the film adaptation uses to show the tension, vulnerability, and harmony that the duo’s partnership is made up of.
Shiori Doi plays the role of Aki Tajima, Suzuki’s hardworking Latin partner, and Anna Ishii plays the role of Fusako Yagami, Sugiki’s classy Ballroom partner, while the film features an extended cast of characters.
It also stars Shinya Hamada, Oshiro Maeda, Nadiya Bychkova, Susie Trayling, and Pasquale La Rocca, who complete the world of competitive dance in which the movie is set.
The movie will be exclusively available on Netflix.
