The Swan at the Mouth of the River
Daphna Mero
Trailer
At 41, Bernd Burgmaier puts on his ballet shoes to dance The Dying Swan one last time, his favourite female role. After a successful career as a dancer in Les Ballets Trockadero, he left the stage, found love and settled in Tel Aviv. A docu-dance that sensitively challenges binary perceptions of life and gender.
