Curse of the Marionette is an experimental dance film about the struggle and desire to reach fame in the balletworld.   Curse of the Marionette was meant as an experiment to set the art of ballet in slow motion. During my research I became more and more interested in the world of ballet. A balletdancer must require good dance techniques. It’s about balance, emotion and motivation. Curse of the Marionette is all about this requirements. Follow the ballerina's on their journey to perfection. They are not only driven by themselves, there is one higher motivation that drives these dancers. You can call it a mother, God, the devil, or maybe a marionette player.
