The story unfolds just before a mother-daughter Pow Wow Dance, known as a Fancy Dance.
Watch the Trailer for 'Fancy Dance' Apple TV+ released the trailer for Fancy Dance on May 8, 2024. Despite the harsh realities of their reservation, the enduring spirit of the Native American community lives on through powwows, which Roki describes as “not just about dancing. It’s a way to be together.” Since her mother’s mysterious disappearance, Roki has been in the care of her aunt Jax.
Deroy-Olson, best known for Three Pines, stars as Roki. Speaking with Collider back at Sundance 2023, the young actress expressed her excitement about working closely with Gladstone. Speaking with Collider’s Steve Weintraub, Gladstone, Tremblay, and Deroy-Olson shared that Fancy Dance is dedicated to their communities, aiming to spread healing and celebrate their heroes. They describe the film as a “love letter to their indigenous communities,” hoping to convey the vital message of love and human connection, emphasizing that these bonds can help people navigate even the darkest times.
