In this entertaining comedy drama, Élise had a perfect life: an ideal boyfriend and a promising career as a Prima Ballerina. It all falls apart the day she catches him cheating on her, and after she suffers an injury on stage. The path to physical and emotional recovery will lead her away from Paris to Brittany -- where her friends, a new love and the freedom of contemporary dance will help her reconnect with her father and most importantly, herself. A heartwarming and inspiring story that tells us the life affirming nature of art and friendship.
The bilingual introduction and the discussion will be led by Hélène Laroche Davis, Professor of Film Studies.
