The Paris Opera in Cinema - Ballet LE PARC

Synopsis

In a French-style garden, four modern Cupids set the pace for romantic conquests. People seek each other out, flirt, observe each other, desire each other, refuse each other, but pride eventually gives way, releasing passions that have been repressed for too long.

Overview

‘What is love today?’ asked Angelin Preljocaj in 1994, when he created Le Parc for the Paris Opera. Thirty years later, the world has continued to change, but his ageless ballet has travelled the globe. Like the final pas de deux, where the bodies whirl around for a languorous kiss; a moment of grace that has become the signature of this ballet.

Ballet in three acts with an epilogue.
