The story
In 19th-century Paris, a young dancer named Marie van Goethem posed for a sculpture that would immortalize her—but what about the girl behind the bronze? Little Dancer follows Marie as she navigates the harsh world of ballet, poverty, and expectations. Torn between ambition and survival, her story unfolds in shadows and spotlight. Will she ever be seen beyond the statue?
