Fascinating and Visceral

Rating: 8/10 (26 June 2011)

This film is a journey into the dark territory of change.
To transcend herself, a girl of innocence must realize that her skill is not enough, must navigate the spined halls of neurosis and conflict, must accept the stark beauty of aggression, and must embrace the glory of pure selfish power.
But it is only after fully understanding the inevitable cost and the sacrifices made, that she may come full circle and achieve the grace of tragic beauty and find true perfection, which is impossible to survive.
Graceful, moving, and laced with vital turmoil...
...la danse magnifique.
