To live is to dance. To dance is to live.

review
Synopsis
1961. Rudolf Nureyev left his homeland of the Soviet Union for the first time in his life to perform in Paris as a member of the Kirov Ballet (now Mariinsky Ballet). Although Rudolph is described as arrogant, selfish, and rebellious, his passion for dancing is stronger than anyone else, and he tries to absorb everything he can get in a foreign country, but his actions are monitored by the KGB and the government's pressure is on him. It only got stronger. On June 16th, Rudolph is about to head to his next performance location when he is suddenly ordered to return home. This foreshadowed a future in which she would be taken to a concentration camp and would be unable to continue dancing. After the members depart, Rudolph, who is left at the airport with the KGB, is overwhelmed with anxiety and fear, and what is the decision he makes?
