About
A young ballerina falls for a composer while the head of her ballet company, who demands total dedication, tries to keep them apart.
Julian Craster (Marius Goring), a music student in London, attends a performance by the touring Ballet Lermontov and leaves in anger when he recognises that his professor has used his compositions without credit. At a party hosted by Victoria Page's aunt, the company's head, Boris Lermontov (Anton Walbrook), meets Victoria (Moira Shearer). She tells him that dancing is the most important thing in her life. He invites her to spend time with his company before it leaves for Paris and later hires her in a full-time role after seeing her dance the lead in Swan Lake. The company is preparing a new ballet, The Red Shoes, based on Hans Christian Andersen's fairy tale.
