Giselle: Ballet in Cinema
Overview: The ultimate romantic ballet, performed by former Bolshoi Ballet principals Olga Smirnova and Jacopo Tissi, who fled Russia and joined the Dutch National Ballet, where this production is filmed. The young peasant girl Giselle falls in love with Albrecht, a nobleman already betrothed who hides his true identity from her. When she learns the truth, she becomes mad and dies. Against her own will, Giselle joins the Wilis: vengeful spirits of jilted brides who condemn Albrecht to dance until he dies of exhaustion.
Overview: Captured live, direct from Moscow, Russia, this historic masterpiece of breathtaking beauty born at the Bolshoi Theatre remains an all-time audience favorite.
