V hlavní roli Adele Astairová – Knight Eliza (2023)

Fred Astaire is one of the most famous dancers of the 20th century, who, along with his partner Ginger Rogers, conquered stages and cinemas across America. However, little is known that the famous duo Ginger and Fred had a predecessor: Fred's first dance partner was his older sister Adele. The Astaire siblings (originally named Austerlitz, the family changed their name upon arriving in America) were child sensations as early as the beginning of the century, and critics at the time even considered the three years older Adele to be the more talented and dazzling half of the sibling duo. ***** Their global success was born on the day they embarked on their premier journey to Europe, which fundamentally changed their lives. Above all, Adele shone on European stages, and London welcomed her as a superstar. At her feet knelt the sons of the most esteemed aristocratic families, including the heir apparent himself, but Adele had – unlike her ambitious brother – a different vision for her life. ***** Adele's story is complemented by her fictional friend Violet, a young dancer from humble beginnings, who is determined to succeed in the big world of showbiz at all costs. And she is willing to sacrifice almost everything to achieve her goals. *****
