Dancer Official Trailer 1 (2016) - Sergei Polunin Documentary
Ukrainian-born “bad boy of ballet” Sergei Polunin became the Royal Ballet’s youngest ever principal dancer at age 19. But two years later — at the height of his success — he walked away from it all, resolving to give up dance entirely. Steven Cantor’s Dancer tracks the life of this iconoclastic virtuoso, from his prodigal beginnings in the Ukraine to his awe-inspiring performances in the U.K., Russia, and eventually the U.S., where he went viral after David LaChapelle filmed him dancing to Hozier’s “Take Me to Church.” Yet beyond celebrating the raw talent and wild ambition of Polunin, whose sights are now set on Hollywood, Dancer considers how wealth and success may not be enough when it comes to finding personal and professional identity.

Sergei Polunin, the "bad boy" of dance looks like an angel, yet inside demons rage. What results onstage is pure adrenaline pumping emotion. This video depicts the ever warring factions that vie for his soul.

This is the first in a series of videos I've created from a film short (please see credits below). Sergei Polunin, phenomenal ballet star, portrays a young soldier wounded on the battleground. He awakens amid carnage and death. He rises, and runs. We see flashes of his life, of brilliance and hope, as he flees. An angelic figure is seen watching (waiting) for his arrival. She reaches out for him with open arms as he sprints across a bridge toward her. He smiles as his eyes meet hers, but he does not make it into the comfort of her caress. He succumbs to his wounds. We see him fall in life, a life of youth and promise cut tragically short. His lifeless body lies amid the wreckage where he first arose, and he now lies peacefully in the arms of the angel.
