Storia
In 1887, after her gold prospector father's death, Marie-Louise leaves the American West to pursue acting in New York with her mother. While performing on stage one night, she accidentally creates a graceful dance by swirling her dress, dubbing it the 'Serpentine Dance.' The audience loves it, and Marie-Louise transforms into Loïe Fuller. She moves to Paris, dazzling audiences at the Folies Bergères, gaining admirers like Toulouse Lautrec and the Lumière Brothers. Her encounter with Isadora Duncan disrupts her relationships with lover Louis and assistant Gabrielle, risking her artistic essence.
Riassunto
La danseuse (2016), directed by Stéphanie Di Giusto, is a biographical drama centering on Loïe Fuller, an American dancer who rose to fame in late 19th-century Paris. Despite having no prior dance training, Fuller revolutionized performance art with her innovative 'Serpentine Dance.' The film follows her journey from her humble beginnings in the American West to her dazzling success at the Folies Bergères, where she captivates influential figures like Toulouse Lautrec and Auguste and Louis Lumière. However, her encounter with fellow dancer Isadora Duncan threatens her relationships and artistic integrity.
