Storyline

In the 70's, Alex Markov is raised by her mother Clarice Markov to be a successful ballerina, and in their home there are no mysteries or taboo related to sex, since her father, Dr. Dan Markov, openly discusses this subject with his family. When Alex reaches sixteen years old, her parents split while her boyfriend presses her to have sex blurring her dreams and making her confused. With the support of her family and friends, Alex supersedes her problems.—Claudio Carvalho, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil



Short Review

Instant watcher beware: the sound lags behind the picture for the entirety of the movie, and that's obnoxious. But anyway, while this doesn't have a lot of plot, and is super melodramatic, somehow it managed to interest my sappy, girly side. I doubt I could recommend it highly, or that I would want to watch it again, but if you're in the mood for something low-key without a whole lot of point, this is worth watching.
