Niels Tavernier tries to recreate moments of life of the Opera's corps de ballet, inspired in this film by the grace of dance. The Garnier Opera, an imposing and secret place, an enclosed space where dancers, teachers and musicians meet, brings together personalities who build their lives around the same demanding and total passion. It is an extraordinary place, where the notion of work and perfection is pushed to the extreme. Like the dancers, Niels Tavernier films in movement, where the emotion of speech and bodies is expressed. His film bears witness to striking moments of truth in seeking to understand the inexplicable: grace.
