Hans Christian Andersen et la danseuse
6.3
Le savetier Andersen fascine les enfants de son village en leur racontant des contes magnifiques. A son écoute, les petits en oublient presque de se rendre à l'école. Semoncé par le maire, Andersen part pour Copenhague avec son commis, Peter. Il y devient le fournisseur en chaussons de Dora, une danseuse étoile. Il tombe amoureux de l'artiste, qui est mariée au maître de ballet, et lui écrit un conte de fées, «La Petite Sirène». Le conte deviendra un magnifique ballet. Mais, comprenant qu'il rêve d'un amour impossible, le savetier reprend le chemin de son village, où l'attendent les enfants.

The celebrated French choreographer Roland Petit had always had his eye on a film presentation of his ballet "Chaplin Dances", which premiered in 1991 and has been touring the world since, and he assigned this project to his trusted friend, Masayuki Suo, pioneer of the current revival of Japanese cinema. Drawing upon a wealth of worldwide ballet talent, Petit's ballet and Chaplin's films, Suo reinvented the work and has given it a new lease of life. The resulting piece is not simply a filmed record of the ballet but a union of the two media that reflects the meeting of the great talents of Chaplin, Petit and Suo

Nicolas Le Riche and Marie-Agnès Gillot star in the legendary Roland Petit and Jean Cocteau's pioneering one-act ballet Le Jeune homme et la Mort.

A mesmerizing drama in dance as virtuosic as it is unsettling!
