I was expecting more from this movie. Although this movie was meant to be more of a documentary, it was disorganized and jumped from one scene to the next without transitions. I am a fellow dancer and it doesn't take much to maintain my attention when it comes to dance movies, but I had a difficult time with this one.

Who paid for this movie to be produced? There is no story, there is barely a main character. The only way I made it through was by folding laundry as I went, at least it wasn't a complete waste of time that way.

I was almost relieved to read the other reviews of this movie. At first I thought maybe I missed something, but there really is no plot. There really isn't even any dialogue in the movie, just a series of rehearsals and performances. The ballets are very good, but it is more like a DVD of a ballet performance not a movie.
