About this book

Pierre Lacotte, with his wife and dance partner, Ghislaine Thesmar, influenced the world of ballet with adaptations of romantic ballets such as Coppelia in Shanghai in 2002, Daughter of the Danube in Tokyo in 2007 and La Sylphide in 2011 in Vienna and Moscow. The documentary explores the ballet over a span of 60 years, including archival footage, and features ballet greats such as Rudolph Nureyev, Agnes Letestu, Michael Denard, Evgenia Obratsova, and Svetlana Zakharova.
