There’s a lived-in authenticity coursing through She Dances, the kind that can’t be faked because it isn’t. Directed by Rick Gomez in his feature debut and co-written with Steve Zahn, the film unfolds as a tender, often funny portrait of a fractured father-daughter relationship set against the hyper-specific world of competitive dance.
