Live paintings are more than a show. They are a gallery come to life. They are an emotion that can be experienced here and now. Art has transcended its boundaries. It has gone beyond them. This is its limitless power.

Tchaikovsky's majestic opera takes us back to the pivotal year of 1429 during the Hundred Years' War. France, weakened by civil strife and English intervention, is on the brink of destruction. Orléans is the last bastion of hope. It is in this fateful hour that the young Joan of Arc appears, her faith becoming a sword and her sacrifice a banner.

In the new interpretation of Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky's legendary music, the choreographer-director and the team of authors depart from the usual understanding of the well-known ballet plot as a children's-family and completely fairy-tale one. There will be no Hoffmann characters here: this is a story almost about our contemporaries, ordinary people with their inherent worries and anxieties, with the naivety of youth, the disappointments of growing up, and the newfound hope.

Reverse metamorphosis: a biobot gains a soul. A dance performance by Olga Labovkina, one of the most prominent choreographers of Russian contemporary dance. Unexpectedly and uncharacteristically for this short format, it is divided into two acts, but this is absolutely justified, because the two acts represent two different worlds.
