MOMENT OF LIGHT: The Dance of Evelyn Hart

48 minutes/Grades 10-Adult

Produced by Blue Morpho Films with The National Film Board of
Canada/ A film by Gordon Reeve

In an intimate portrayal of Evelyn Hart, one of the world's
greatest interpreters of classical ballet, this film -- part
documentary, part biography -- creates a "glimpse into the
inner spirit and motivation" of its subject.

The film features Hart in performances with her home company,
the Royal Winnipeg Ballet and with her frequent partner, Rex
Harrington of the National Ballet of Canada. Filmed
when Hart split her time between the Royal Winnipeg Ballet and
the Munich Ballet, it includes footage of her work with the
Paris Opera Ballet in Lifar's "Romeo and Juliet".

Other works included are "The Sleeping Beauty," and Uwe
Scholz's "Klavierkonzert es-Dur," set to Mozart's Piano
Concerto No. 9.

Awards: Red Ribbon, American Film & Video Festival; Silver
Plaque, Chicago International Film Festival; Bronze Apple,

• "Impressive and captivating...So much of the strength of the
  film comes out of the revelations it offers us into the high-
  stake world of dance...It permits us inside a world of unusual
  beauty and pain, of immeasurable highs and almost crippling
  lows and makes us aware...what are the costs of going after
  perfection." Dance Connection
