He chose a theme from the conservatory's most famous composition 'Swan Lake' written by its most famous student Peter Tchaikovsky, in particular the moment of transformation between swan and ballerina. He expanded his vision of the work, to create a documentary film of its creation. The result is a film that demonstrates the creative process, both mental and physical, in an allegorical style that combines movement and music as if a dance performance.
