Apple Shares Official Trailer for 'Fancy Dance' [Video]

Apple has shared the official trailer for 'Fancy Dance,' the Sundance Film Festival selection from Confluential Films, starring Lily Gladstone. The film is co-written, directed, and produced by Erica Tremblay.

Since her sister's disappearance, Jax (Gladstone) has cared for her niece Roki (Isabel Deroy-Olson) by scraping by on the Seneca-Cayuga reservation in Oklahoma. Every spare minute goes into finding her missing sister while also helping Roki prepare for an upcoming powwow. At the risk of Jax losing custody to Roki's grandfather, Frank (Shea Whigham), the pair hit the road and scour the backcountry to track down Roki's mother in time for the powwow. What begins as a search gradually turns into a far deeper investigation into the complexities and contradictions of Indigenous women moving through a colonized world while at the mercy of a failed justice system. Gladstone stars alongside Deroy-Olson, Ryan Begay, Crystle Lightning, with Audrey Wasilewski and Whigham.




"Fancy Dance," a Confluential Films and Significant Productions/AUM Group production, introduces director Tremblay, who also serves as screenwriter alongside Miciana Alise. The film is produced by Deidre Backs, Tremblay, Heather Rae, Nina Yang Bongiovi and Tommy Oliver, with Bird Runningwater, Gladstone, Forest Whitaker and Charlotte Koh serving as executive producers.

"Fancy Dance" will premiere in select theaters on June 21, 2024, ahead of its global debut on Apple TV+ on June 28, 2024.
