Overview

Have you ever wondered what drives that certain talented person to pursue the cut-throat passion of dance? What happens behind the curtain, and how did they end up here in the first place?

Virtuosi, the feature-length documentary by award-winning choreographer and filmmaker Sue Healy, sound tracked by New Zealand’s own Mike Nock, is the answer to all your questions about those who make a name for themselves through the art of dance, and what it takes to turn their craft into a successful career. Healy delves into the lives of eight New Zealand dance artists. Intimate and revealing, astounding and awe-inspiring, this documentary uncovers the lives that were always destined for great things on the stage, often a rare opportunity that comes at a great price.

These stories are told with great care and respect by Healy, whose own understanding has informed her approach to create a truly unique viewing experience.
