The Unfinished Dance

Romance! Spectacle! Music!

Meg, a young ballet student, adores the school's shallow top ballerina, Ariane Bouchet. Learning that visiting prima ballerina Darina will dance the lead in the school's Swan Lake rather than Bouchet, Meg is distressed. On opening night, she arranges an accident that nearly kills Darina and ends her dancing career. Bouchet becomes a star, while Meg is torn with guilt. A remake of the 1937 French film Ballerina, based on a short story by Paul Morand.
