Guided by his idol George Balanchine, Hans van Manen has spent his entire life striving to create meaning in his choreographies. In addition to conversations with colleagues and collaborators, van Manen talks about his life and work in the documentary "Moving to Music" and where he drew the inspiration for his ballets, which are charged with drama and eroticism. Three complete works by the Dutch National Ballet can also be seen - the early "Metaforen", "Adagio Hammerklavier", which presents the slow movement of Beethoven's Sonata op. 106 live on stage with three couples in different configurations, and "Frank Bridge Variations", a late masterpiece that plays with balance and counterpoint to music by Benjamin Britten.
