Call Me Lion

Leo has spent his life dreaming of performing on the West End. His love of dancing is getting him through the heatwave, but his selective mutism means he is unlikely to be able to perform in public and puts his spot in the end-of-summer dance show on the line.
When chatty Richa moves in next door, Leo finds her easy to bond with. She talks enough for the both of them … at least to begin with. When he learns her secret, it’s clear that she needs his support as much as he needs hers.
With Richa’s help, will Leo be able to follow his dreams? Or will Leo’s inability to talk to Richa will cost him their friendship?
