Blessed with astonishing power and poise, Sergei Polunin took the dance world by storm and became the London Royal Ballet's youngest ever principal. At the peak of his success, aged 25, he walked away, resolving to give up dance entirely. Ukrainian-born "bad boy of ballet" Sergei Polunin became the Royal Ballet's youngest ever principal dancer at age 19. But two years later – at the height of his success – he walked away from it all, resolving to give up dance entirely. Steven Cantor's DANCER tracks the life of this iconoclastic virtuoso, from his prodigal beginnings in the Ukraine to his awe-inspiring performances in the U.K., Russia, and eventually the U.S., where he went viral after David LaChapelle filmed him dancing to Hozier's "Take Me to Church." Yet beyond celebrating the raw talent and wild ambition of Polunin, DANCER considers how wealth and success may not be enough when it comes to finding personal and professional identity.

anglais This is a documentary that is not afraid to show the personality of a brilliant dancer in all his forms, including the moments when he falls to the ground, with it often being his own fault. Sergei wasn't afraid to let the camera film him and really showed himself to us with all the nuances. Watching him dance is something I can’t help but like, even though I don't like ballet. ()
