Synopsis:

George Balanchine: the father of neoclassical ballet. He became a major choreographer of the 20th century in a life that took him from St. Petersburg to Paris and finally to New York. His ballets live today in the minds and bodies of his very first ballerinas. Here, they transmit their knowledge to a new generation of dancers. A ballet shaped decades ago by the Master himself is taught to today's young stars by one of his original muses. Almost as though Balanchine were standing in the dance studio with them. This is the latest film in Delouche's series researching the extraordinary genealogy of ballet and its impact on film.
