Nascita di una stella

I saw it for Catherine Deneuve . I was seduced by photography and by admirable work of Dorothee Gilbert.

And, in same measure, by realistic, precise , beautiful at whole exploration of ballet univers in fair terms.

A ballerina is front to the top of her career. A secret, physical problems, anxiety, terrible pressure are, each of them, a serious obstacle. But her determination and support of other are enough.

Few scenes are just great, from the beginning and the nakedness of Emma, to the red robes and the office of Miss Jean ( like many roles of last decades, with flavor of self definition for magnificent Deneuve ) , to the end.

An open door to a great world, this is the basic virtue of this short film.
