Perm is considered the “third capital” of Russian ballet. The main reason for this recognition is the Perm State Choreographic School, led for thirty years by People’s Artist of the USSR Lyudmila Pavlovna Sakharova. The film tells the story of the last classes of this legendary ballet teacher’s final graduating class.
