Baletnyy sindrom

Baletnyy sindrom

Documentary drama about the backstage of Russian ballet. It is no secret for the creative community that ballet dancers more often than others face harassment and blackmail from teachers and theater managers. Despite this, all active dancers claim that theaters and ballet schools are "monasteries with their own charter," which the artist is obliged to accept, and for years they have tolerated the clause about sexual obedience to masters and mentors included in this charter. For what reason are ballet dancers silent about the dark side of the profession and what is their silence really hiding?
