In 1936 Hackney, England, George Arkwright, a young man down on his luck, must navigate the refined world of ballet pointe shoe making and redeem his value as the apprentice under the shadow of Mr. David Traynor, a talented but stuffy pointe shoemaker. George's imagination turns into a reality when he becomes smitten with the Ballerinas the shoes are built for, one named Sylvia......
The story also happened to the lead actor in real life, feel sad that human nature still has not changed. All casts are good, in particular the male lead's acting is excellent! Movie is well made, each main character has their own song, music style reflects chinese music's elegance, strongly recommend!
