The classical ballet, and one of the most controversial ballets ever written, by Russian composer Igor Stravinsky is now a short film. In prehistoric Russia, a tribe of pagans celebrate the arrival of spring with an annual human sacrifice. The men of the tribe choose a virgin to be sacrificed to their gods, in order to please them and to ensure that the tribe’s survival will continue. Ultimately, one such girl is chosen, and as the rest of the tribe visually align themselves with the earth, the elders of the tribe force this girl to dance herself to death, in accordance with the tribe’s sacred ritual.
