Clip description

Twin sisters Yuma (Cassandra Glenn) and Kyanna (Christine Glenn) have swapped identities. While Yuma is in the desert eating bush tucker, Kyanna (Christine Glenn) is in Sydney trying to continue the facade at Yuma’s dance lessons. Heath (James Fraser), Yuma’s brother, and Sasha (Basia A’hern) conspire to find out what’s going on with 'Yuma’ (really Kyanna). Kyanna, for her sister’s sake, tries to make amends with Sasha.

Curator’s notes

The intensity is building for Kyanna as she is pressured to keep her sister’s dance commitments in Sydney. Having swapped places, it seems that Yuma is adapting to her surrounds more easily than Kyanna. Faced with having to rehearse with dance partner Sasha, Kyanna is finding it hard to conceal that she can’t fill her sister’s dancing shoes.
