Description : This ensemble drama portrays the life of a company of ballet dancers, following several stories, but focusing on a young dancer (Campbell) on the verge of becoming a principal dancer, who finds herself distracted from the grueling study and practice she must go through by other interests. Dancers do the impossible. And yet we all want to be them. They are that beautiful, that vulnerable, and that expressive. They are the essence of what we mean by ethereal. Here are world class artists who, for the most part, are poorly paid and live hand to mouth; often in very unglamorous conditions. They take immaculate care of their bodies while smoking countless cigarettes, downing endless cups of coffee and working punishing hours. Their daily reality includes bloody feet, bludgeoned ambitions, and the work itself -- in all of its demanding beauty.
