Born to Dance
2011, German. Directed by Hans-Günther Bücking.
Together with her best friend Milena, the ambitious dancer Anna works hard to realize her dream of a successful dance career. When the chance arose to get one of the coveted places in the corps de ballet, Anna was immediately hooked and trained day and night. The only opposition to her plan comes from her father, who wants to protect her from the immense pressure. His worries do not seem unfounded: Anna's path to the top turns out to be steep and rocky - and gradually leads to a nightmare.
