‘BIRDS OF PARADISE’ DANCERS GO HEAD TO HEAD!
9th September 2021
Kate Sanders is an ambitious and gifted, if tomboyish, aspiring ballerina from Virginia who, because of her low-income status, is given a scholarship to attend a prestigious ballet school in Paris, France.
Two dancers at an elite ballet academy in Paris compete for a contract to join the highly coveted Opéra national de Paris; adapted from the novel “Bright Burning Stars.”
Upon arriving at the cutthroat, internationally-renowned institution, her confidence and emotional fortitude are tested by a beautiful, mysterious fellow dancer, Marine Durand, who recently lost her brother (and dance partner) to suicide. While confrontational at first, Kate and Marine’s relationship evolves into an emotionally-charged, competitive union beset by lies, sexual awakening and, ultimately, emotional breakthrough as they risk everything to win the school’s ultimate prize: a contract to join the Opéra national de Paris.
Starring Diana Silvers, Kristine Froseth and Jacqueline Bisset, BIRDS OF PARADISE is out on Prime Video September 24th, 2021.
