Bande-annonce
Qualifiée de « trésor vivant canadien », la danseuse et chorégraphe Peggy Baker illumine l’univers de la danse moderne depuis le début des années 70. Elle a collaboré avec les plus grands noms de la danse et s’est produite sur les scènes les plus prestigieuses. À l’aube de sa soixantaine, Baker est devenue chorégraphe. Alliant témoignages et images d’archives qui la montrent dans l’exercice de son art, ce documentaire explore le processus créatif, son aspect mystérieux et vital. Un portrait intimiste et sensible d’une artiste de grand talent.
