Giveaway: Win A DVD Of THE WHITE CROW (Europe Only)
Thanks to our friends at Magnolia Mae Films, Film Inquiry is happy to announce that we’ve got 2 DVDs to give away for The White Crow to our Europe-based readers!
A young man of just 22, dressed in a black beret and a dark narrow suit, is on an airplane flying from St Petersburg to Paris. It is 1961 and Rudolf Nureyev, not yet the imperious figure of legend, is a member of the world-renowned Kirov Ballet Company, travelling for the first time outside the Soviet Union. Parisian life delights Nureyev and the young dancer is eager to consume all the culture, art and music the dazzling city has to offer. But the KGB officers who watch his every move become increasingly suspicious of his behavior and his friendship with the young Parisienne Clara Saint.
When they finally confront Nureyev with a shocking demand, he is forced to make a heart-breaking decision, one that may change the course of his life forever and put his family and friends in terrible danger. From Nureyev’s poverty-stricken childhood in the Soviet city of Ufa, to his blossoming as a student dancer in Leningrad, to his arrival at the epicentre of western culture in Paris in the early 1960s and a nail-biting stand-off at the Le Bourget airport, The White Crow is the true story of an incredible journey by a unique artist who transformed the world of ballet forever.
The film is directed by and stars Ralph Fiennes as well as Oleg Ivenko as Nureyev.
To win a copy, please follow the instructions below. Please note the DVD is a Region B disc, which is why it is limited to our European readers only.
