Crystal Pite: Angels’ Atlas

Crystal Pite: Angels’ Atlas Feature Documentary

The National Ballet of Canada is proud to present a feature-length documentary featuring Crystal Pite’s highly regarded 2020 ballet Angels' Atlas. The film, the first to be commissioned by the company, follows Pite and the artists of the National Ballet as they return to the stage following the pandemic shutdown, complete with candid interviews and rehearsal footage. Building toward an emotional opening night, the film’s centrepiece is a cinematic capture of Angels’ Atlas in its entirety. The film, which had its world premiere at the Vancouver International Film Festival and its Toronto premiere at Fall For Dance North this fall, will air on the documentary Channel on Sunday, November 13 at 8:00 pm.
