Synopsis - "Fancy Dance" follows Jax, played by Lily Gladstone, as she cares for her niece, Roki, played by Isabel Delroy- Olson, after her sister disappears. Jax faces the threat of losing custody of Roki to her father, Frank, portrayed by Shea Whigham. Determined to keep her family together, Jax embarks on a journey to find her missing sister, hoping to reunite Roki with her mother before it's too late.Though ostensibly a thriller, the movie hardly breaks a sweat, even after Jax kidnaps Roki from her grandparents, hitting the road with cops in pursuit. Mind you, "Fancy Dance" couldn't be more different from Taylor Sheridan's testosterone-driven "Wind River." Here, the only gunshot in the entire movie occurs off-camera, while potentially dangerous scenes when Jax swaggers into rooms where strangers might snuff her are curiously lacking in tension.
Even though much of the plot feels preordained, convincing performances keep things interesting and somewhat unpredictable. You never doubt for a second that Gladstone's Jax can force her way past any obstacle (à la Kali Reis' "Catch the Fair One" character last year), despite there being a weirdly listless "are we there yet?" quality to this road trip, echoed by the cicadas idly buzzing in the background. Eventually, Roki and Jax will find their way to the powwow, while the case gets handled off-camera. "Missing" may as well be "dead" when the system doesn't care, whereas sharing traditions and sticking together is a kind of power.
