Cha Cha Real Smooth follows Andrew, a bright but directionless 22-year-old who has just graduated and moves back home, taking a job as a party starter at bar/bat mitzvahs. He befriends a vibrant single mom, Domino, and forms a bond with her autistic daughter Lola. Through humor and heart, the film explores what it means to grow up, make risky choices, and find belonging, love, and purpose in unexpected places. It balances playful energy with sincere emotion, observing adulthood's imperfect path.
