Directed by Joachim Lang (Mack the Knife) this cinematic, dance-infused tribute to the virtuoso choreographer who became a star on the world’s greatest ballet stages sees Sam Riley (Control, SS-GB) deliver a profoundly moving titualr performance.
Prosecuted for homosexual activity in London, up-and-coming choreographer John Cranko (Riley) leaves for Stuttgart, Germany in 1960. A frenzied workaholic with a charming demeanour, Cranko swiftly revitalises the Stuttgart Ballet company, but his lifestyle attracts attention.
After a controversial replacement of the prima donna and a series of new additions, Cranko's first production of Romeo and Juliet is a sensational success. He becomes the darling of the public and the ensemble is soon globally renowned, being invited to perform at prestigious venues like New York's Metropolitan Opera.
Driven by a quest for perfection, Cranko grapples with destructive private setbacks amidst his meteoric rise. Featuring a dance ensemble of real Stuttgart Ballet members, this captivating drama deftly weaves together Cranko’s life and art in a tale of the highs and lows of the intoxicating limelight.
