Dancing at the Blue Iguana (2001)

In the pulsating heart of Los Angeles, the Blue Iguana stands as an oasis of dreams and destinies intertwined. Here, five resilient ecdysiasts dance their stories into the neon-lit night. Stormy, the brooding beauty, finds herself wrestling with ghosts from her past when an old flame reappears. Jasmine, a soulful poetess, creates verses as captivating as her dances, and might have found a muse in Dennis, the gentle organizer of a local coffee house's poetry readings. Angel, with her whimsical charm, navigates life as a free-spirited stoner, her heart set on adopting a foster child, even as a Russian hitman becomes dangerously enchanted by her. Jessie, newly arrived in the city and teetering on the brink of womanhood, attempts to find her footing in a world more complex than she ever imagined. Jo, bold and audacious, dances to the rhythm of life, all while grappling with an unexpected pregnancy. Under the watchful eyes of Eddie, the club's no-nonsense manager, and his right-hand man, Bobby, the Blue Iguana prepares for a big weekend, enlisting the talents of the enigmatic Nico to headline the show. Amidst the glitz, glamour, and grit, these women seek solace and strength, sometimes finding it in the unlikeliest of places - each other. 'Dancing at the Blue Iguana' is a vibrant tapestry of personal battles and shared dreams, set to the tantalizing backdrop of a strip-club stage.
