Film Synopsis

Benjamin Millepied is one of France's most distinguished choreographers.  In October 2014, he took over the post of director of dance at the prestigious Paris Opera Ballet and immediately made his mark with his showmanship and flair for innovation.  Still only in his mid-thirties, Millepied already has a reputation for reinvigorating classic dance.  This documentary by Thierry Demaizière and Alban Teurlai shows his creative process in full throttle as he embarks on his latest ballet - Clear, Loud, Bright, Forward - a vibrant tribute to dance in the 20th century...
