There's a scene in Daniel Wolfe's new film, the thriller Catch Me Daddy, where a character played by Sameena Jabeen Ahmed dances to Patti Smith's iconic Horses track "Land". That scene was choreographed by FKA twigs—watch it below via NME.

The director discussed the scene with Dazed, saying that initially Ahmed was supposed to dance to Nicki Minaj's "Roman's Revenge". The song was cut because "it didn't feel right".

Sameena had never danced before, so we got Twigs to come up to Yorkshire, and she spent a couple of days with Sameena, and really helped her—even on a psychological level. Sameena had never danced, literally never danced, so Twigs was really brilliant with her, she helped her overcome that obstacle of being in your early 20s and dancing in a room full of people.
