Im Ballett

Little Paul accompanies his little sister Mathilde to the ballet school where people are busily rehearsing for Nutcracker by Pyotr Tchaikovsky. Little Paul watches a ballet lesson, learns something about the classical ballet and jazz dance, and finds out that ballet is not just for girls. During the general rehearsal for Nutcracker at the opera-house, Little Paul steps in for a sick extra and suddenly finds himself right in the middle of the action on the stage...
