Our take
A documentary that acts out as a crime thriller, this incisive look behind the scenes of Moscow’s ultra-prestigious Bolshoi Ballet contrasts the elegance and endurance of the art with the horrific and corrupted affairs that have shook the institution. A truly captivating, insightful investigation.
