Horizontes

Streaming video - 2015

Three generations of Cuban ballet dancers are portrayed in this beautiful festival favorite. Alicia Alonso’s splendor still radiates, encouraging the dreams of young dancers. An aspiring ballerina who has dedicated all her efforts towards being accepted into Alonso’s ballet company. And one of four celebrated dancers of the National Ballet. Together, they offer insight into the past, present, and future of Cuba’s national ballet.. Official Selection at Locarno Film Festival. Special Jury Mention at the Visions du Reel Film Festival.. "Poetic, lyrical and profound, HORIZONTES strings sequences to create a reflection on perseverance. With great delicacy, on the wings of the whirling pirouettes of the three ballerinas, Horizontes re...veals the women behind the dancers, in flesh and bone, intensely bound by the passion of the ballet." - Raquel Monteiro, CoolBrandz
