ROSES AND FALL
This sober and yet emotional film with dancer Jean-Guillaume Weis visualises the artistic development and the last days of the famous dancer Vaslav Nijinsky in an asylum. At the time, he was writing his diary, which is quoted in the film, and which not only indicates his mental state, but also his desire for love and recognition from the general public.
