Synopsis

Loosely based on the iconic Italian ballerina Carla Fracci's autobiography, the film starts from the story of Carla as a child in the post-war period, then as an adolescent and young woman in the Milan of the 1950s and 1960s, recounting her rise to success and the difficult choice to become a mother at a crucial moment in her career. Instinct, passion and challenge - these elements characterise the life of one of the greatest dancer in Italy.
