PRESENTED IN PARTNERSHIP WITH ALLIANCE FRANÇAISE IN CELEBRATION OF THE 2023 FRENCH FILM FESTIVAL, SCREENING IN CANBERRA FROM MARCH 9 TO APRIL 5

With a promising career as a ballet dancer and a dream boyfriend, 26-year-old Elise (Marion Barbeau) thought she had the perfect life. Until it all falls apart when she catches him cheating on her and subsequently suffers a devastating injury on stage, which means she may never be able to dance again.

The path to physical and emotional recovery will lead her away from Paris to a picturesque location in Brittany, where her friends, a new love and the freedom of contemporary dance will help her reconnect with herself, in this heart-warming and inspiring French drama.
