I've always had a real soft spot for ballet films, from Center Stage to Black Swan. It's a dialogue and visual narrative that really appeals for me. That said, I've never actually been to a ballet, which I feel is a pretty gross lapse in my life experiences - something I am hoping to amend this year! All that aside, these behind the scenes photos of the Canadian production of Giselle are stunning. The ethereal atmosphere lends both to the production itself and to the narrative of ballet as a medium. It is really, really lovely. You can view the full set here.
