Bolero
Every 15 minutes, someone somewhere in the world plays Maurice Ravel’s “Bolero”...
Raphaël Personnaz delivers an unforgettable performance as the titular composer, grappling with inner turmoil and artistic insecurity. Tasked by the eccentric dancer Ida Rubenstein (Jeanne Balibar) to craft a passionate and intoxicating score for her new ballet, Ravel finds himself creatively paralysed and marginalised by his contemporaries.
Seeking solace and inspiration, he leans on his confidantes: the pianist Marguerite Long (Emmanuelle Devos), his loyal friend Cipa (Vincent Perez), and Cipa’s captivating sister, Misia (Doria Tillier), for whom he harbours deep affection.
Against the lavish backdrop of 1920s Paris, Ravel must fight to redeem his raw musical genius, or risk being consumed by it completely...
From celebrated director Anne Fontaine (Coco Before Chanel, The Innocents), Bolero is a powerful exploration of Maurice Ravel’s unique life, and his journey to complete the now iconic 17-minute composition.
Sumptuously staged and showcasing lavish performances, don’t miss this stunning tribute to the lasting power of Ravel’s masterpiece.
