Mina Shum

Moving from Hong Kong to Vancouver on the arm of a rich husband, Yin thought she’d landed the fairy tale. But when her husband’s not home for almost six months and her company is mostly a chauffeur and a similarly abandoned trophy wife, this former dancer discovers how to forge a new path in Whatcha Want. Director Mina Shum (Murdoch Mysteries), Whatcha Want layers in character beats about Yin, who danced as a child and now can’t help but move with her earbuds, even walking on the sidewalk. She soon discovers a hip-hop dance troupe near her apartment, where Penny (choreographer Helen Dang), the supportive leader, encourages her to pursue resuming her studies in dance.
