Toby, a 14-year-old British African boy from Peckham, is given a life-changing opportunity to perform in his school's cultural show. Despite his father Baba's wishes for him to focus on his education, Tobi follows his dreams of becoming a dancer and incorporates various African dances, including the powerful Ohafia Warrior Dance, in his routine. Tobi secretly practices the dance, but one day, Baba catches him in the act. Instead of scolding him, Baba is mesmerised by Toby's talent and a newfound bond is formed between father and son.
