Giselle Act III

Giselle. Act III. Premiere // Ballet by Evgeny Panfilov (Perm)

XXVIII International Festival of Contemporary Dance OPEN LOOK

After Giselle's death, life goes on. But not for everyone.

Albert finds himself in a clinic where they treat more than just the body. Here, time behaves strangely. Days repeat, events shift, the boundaries between sleep and reality disappear. Under the supervision of a mysterious doctor, treatment begins, in which memories become almost tangible.

Albert returns to a place from which it is impossible to return. To his first love. To a mistake that cannot be corrected. To the moment after which everything changed. But in this strange world, there is more than just pain. Here, accidental tenderness is born, awkward infatuation, funny and touching attempts to be close. Amidst this fragile, almost weightless movement of life, his own story gradually becomes clear.

Bathilde remains by Albert's side. Alive, strong, and real. Her presence requires no words or excuses, but provides support where everything seems unstable.

Gradually, Albert understands that the past cannot be rewritten. But he can learn to see it differently.

"Giselle. Act III" is a story about love that changes but never disappears. About memory that ceases to be pain and becomes part of the journey. And about a second chance that comes when a person is ready to become different.

The play premiered on May 28, 2026.
