| Description |
Tolstoy's epic Russian love story, Anna Karenina, has inspired countless interpretations for its bold portrait of a married noblewoman who rebels against burgeois norms to pursue her passion for true love. The formidable Finnish National Ballet brings to us a lush and inimitable version of the tragic heroine choreographed by guest choreographer Alexei Ratmansky. The commanding elegance of classical ballet, coupled with the inventive film montage and seamless scene changes, results in nothing less than a breath-taking cinematic panorama of a historical era. |
