Follow acclaimed ballerina Tiler Peck as she overcomes injury to reclaim her place on stage and debut her own choreography with New York City Ballet, revealing the resilience and artistry behind a modern-day prima ballerina.
This Documentary offers a deeply personal look at one of ballet’s most celebrated artists as she faces a career crossroads. Following a series of life altering events—including a major injury and a personal loss—New York City Ballet prima ballerina Tiler Peck is forced to reckon with the unknown and reimagine her relationship to dance, to her body, and to herself. Directed by Alex Ramsey, the film follows Peck over the course of six years of her life, capturing rehearsals, performances and quiet moments of reflection, as she fights to return stronger, not just as a prima ballerina, but also as a choreographer and creative force. After Peck returns to the stage, she takes on the toughest creative challenge of her career: A prestigious invitation to choreograph for the New York City Ballet, culminating in debut performances set to a concerto by Francis Poulenc. Featuring original work by Peck alongside choreography from Alonzo King, William Forsythe, George Balanchine and Christopher Wheeldon, the film blends vulnerability and resilience with artistic brilliance.
