Enter the enchanting world of superstar ballerina Natalia Osipova and prepare to be swept off your feet. BAFTA Award-winning director Gerry Fox takes you behind the curtains of London’s illustrious Royal Opera House, where The Royal Ballet’s Principal dancer shares stories from her childhood in Russia and her time with the American Ballet. Osipova’s bold artistry shines through in unique footage taken from a year’s worth of rehearsals for classical ballets, contemporary productions and new commissions from sought-after choreographers. Force of Nature: Natalia captures the ecstatic energy, emotion and ingenuity of a dancer who never fails to stun audiences with the beauty and power of movement.
