Skye finds herself representing Scotland in the brand new 'Coping Strategies' category of the Olympic Games as a 'Registered Kitchen Dancer'. Moves must be made as she attempts to show a film crew where she trains - a cramped flat sandwiched between other situations. Kitchen Dancer is supported by Creative Scotland and presented as part of the Scottish Mental Health Arts Festival.
