French with English/Thai subtitles
Stunningly gorgeous and delicate in both subject and treatment, Reset depicts renowned choreographer and dancer Benjamin Millepied (best known for choreographing the dance sequences in Black Swan) as he attempts to rejuvenate the Paris Opera Ballet in his new position as director. With appearances by composer Nico Muhly, Opera alumna Aurélie Dupont, and designer Iris van Herpen, Reset is a delightfully aesthetic affair. “A visual ballet, beautifully breathtaking” Vanity Fair “You feel the pressure on the director and his troupe through the daily countdown, which seems, like all deadlines, to move at a faster pace as the day of reckoning approaches.” The Wrap “For anyone with an inherent interest in the arts, it's a fascinating look behind the curtain.” Film Journal International “With his wide eyes, ready laugh and radically inclusive attitude to dance, Millepied exerts a formidable personal charm.” Observer UK
