Summary:
"On the eve of Pakistan's 70th independence anniversary, we follow the spirited 90-year-old guru Indu Mitha as she prepares for her students' final performance before she retires. How She Moves pulls back the curtain on her life as one of Pakistan's few classical dance teachers. We observe her give a feminist and secular spin on classical dance, and see the transformative impact it has on her students"-- From filmmaker's description
