When people think of musicals, two of the first names that immediately spring to mind are Gene Kelly and Fred Astaire, two giants of one of Hollywood's most distinctive genres. Without question, both men played an instrumental role in popularizing and sustaining the musical from the 1930s through the 1950s, the final decades of Hollywood's Golden Age.

Utanför faller regnet och fönstrens imma tätnar medan en märklig dragningskraft spirar. En åtrå växer fram mellan dem och förhoppningarna om kontakt, att utforska och känna, stegrar.
