ABOUT THE MOVIE
«Over the Edge» is a poetic nonnarative documentary film about the ballet principal dancer Mirna Sporiš. In their 40's, when the most professionals are at the top of their careers, ballet dancers are coming to the professional end. Mirna feels that she still has it in herself, but the younger dancers are taking the stage. The age is forcing her to retire. The film takes place in the Croatian National Theatre, Mirna's theatrical home of more than 25 years. We can follow her ordinary working day and the preparations before going on the stage. This film is an hommage to Mirna and to her profession.
