Synopsis

From the child of the suburbs of Marseilles to the choreographer trampling the greatest scenes of the world at the end of his life, Maurice Béjart is undoubtedly one of the most famous creators of the 20th century, the one that allowed the dance to come out of shoes that had become too narrow to enter a new era and offer itself to the greatest possible audience. Maurice Béjart left his mark on a century and the soul of dance forever.
