As young dancers, they were best friends and fierce rivals. Deedee left the stage for marriage and motherhood, while Emma would become an international ballet icon. But when Deedee's teenage daughter is invited to join Emma's dance company and begins an affair with a young Russian star, the two women are forced to confront the choices they've made, the resentments they've hidden and the emotional truths they must face at the turning point.

Les Sylphides is a short, non-narrative ballet blanc to piano music by Frédéric Chopin, selected and orchestrated by Alexander Glazunov.

Witness three wonderful ballets performed live on stage at the Metropolitan Opera House in New York City. "Sylphides" stars legend Mikhail Baryshnikov, "Sylvia" features a lovely duet and "Paquita" is full of energetic Spanish-style choreography. The American Ballet Theatre performers display their incredible talent and amazing versatility through this beautiful collection of memorable ballets.
