Asia-Europe Cultural Festival 2023

The Asia-Europe Cultural Festival is a public arts festival that celebrates the artistic diversity of Asia and Europe. From dance to film to photography, this year's festival will be held for the first time in Singapore from 22 October to 1 November.

Film documentary (duration: 1h 30m)****The odyssey of a millenary art, the symbol of a restored identity. From 1906 to the present day, from Auguste Rodin’s sketches to the creation of a new show for a French tour, from the glory hours to the darkest days, Cambodia’s Royal Ballet has survived and upheld its unique body language. The Perfect Motion film follows the creation of a show called “Metamorphosis” and the history of the Royal Ballet since 1906, when French sculptor Rodin tried to capture, through his drawings, the essence of this art he had just discovered. The conceptualisation and preparation of the new show, as well as the performances across France lead to a journey of discovery of the Ballet’s incredible odyssey. Alternating between past and present, we see the ballet’s movements and postures take us to a world of mystery and splendour, gradually becoming the key to reconstructing national identity and a source of fascination for international audiences. ****This event will feature only the screening of the film &#x27;The Perfect Motion&#x27;. There will NOT be a post-show dialogue and the performance by the Princess Buppha Devi Dance School. To get tickets for the screening with the post-show activities, please see the screening on 22 October 2023. *﻿**Director: Xavier de LauzanneWriters: Xavier de Lauzanne and Pierre KoganProducers: François-Hugues de Vaumas and Sophie ParraultProduction Company: Aloest Films and Bonne Pioche Télévision With support of: HRH Prince Sisowath Tesso and the Princess Buppha Devi Dance School, Phnom Penh, Cambodia *﻿**Admission: Parental GuidanceS﻿uitable for persons of all ages but parental guidance is recommended for young viewers.
