In an old dance studio in Paris Annette is a butterfly floating on golden points across the polished floor.

The afternoon sun is a silent voyeur peeping through the tall windows at this moment of extreme naked intimacy. There is nothing more evocative and sensuous than the sight of girls rehearsing their routines naked.

Annette made the journey from Maryland to dance for the Hegre camera and her performance in An American Ballerina in Paris is a two thumbs up mini-masterpiece.
