Carla

Carla Fracci, a girl from a modest background, takes her first tentative steps into the hallowed halls of La Scala Theatre Academy. Her journey unfolds not just at the barre, but in the quiet battles with self-doubt, the exacting demands of the ballet world, and the constant negotiation between a private self and the public stage. Each grand jeté on the world's most prestigious stages is a step toward her legendary status as Italy's greatest ballerina. The film traces this ascent through controversial choices, profound sacrifices, and hard-won satisfactions that shaped an icon.
