I saw a part of this movie. It was an artistic movie, it looked like it shouldn't have been a movie, but it was. There was a girl, the protagonist, dressed in a green long dress, assisting a gala with her family. She pretended she liked the play that they were watching from a very fancy round table, and she smiled when people watched her, trying to please everyone in her family.

However, she excused herself to go to the bathroom. On the way to the bathroom, she started making weird faces, and dancing frantically, fighting the demons that made her conform to society. She found a tall black man, who she attacked artistically and dismayed him. She was looking at the camera most of the time while she was dancing, and she could shoot projectiles out of her hands, like small lightning bolts.

EDIT: Since the original video was shut down, I re-created it. I hope you enjoy it (and I also hope they don't copyright strike me...

    "it looked like it shouldn't have been a movie, but it was" - in what way shouldn't have been? "attacked artistically and dismayed him" - what does this mean?

    I felt like it shouldn't have been a movie, because the actress was staring into the camera the while she was dancing the whole time. Also, when he attacked the man, it looked like they were acting as if they were inside a theatre play: she grabbed him by the face, and while he was talking on the phone, he dropped his phone and looked at her exaggerating his fear; then, he fell to the ground very robotically, to the rythm of the music playing while she was dancing prior to the attack.

    It sounds more like an early 90's music video

    FWIW, gaining the power to emit energy blasts from your hand due to the power of music seems SF enough to me.

    In case that's a controversial position, I started a Meta post at scifi.meta.stackexchange.com/questions/12875/…

This is a weird coincidence, I only saw that for the first time during the week. It was linked from an online conversation about the music video for Fatboy Slim's "Weapon of Choice", due to the similarities.

It's by the same director (Spike Jonze) and isn't a movie but actually a perfume ad for Kenzo World. It was made in 2016.
