Siddharta(2010)
A journey of the spirit, body, and mind — the ballet of enlightenment.
Siddharta Synopsis
“Siddharta” is a landmark contemporary ballet by Angelin Preljocaj, created for the Paris Opera Ballet and inspired by the spiritual journey of Siddhartha Gautama, the future Buddha. Set to an original score by Bruno Mantovani, this production fuses philosophical narrative with avant-garde choreography and striking visual design by Claude Lévêque. The piece explores themes of desire, suffering, and transcendence, following Siddharta’s path from royal privilege through temptation and enlightenment. The work stands out for its blend of spiritual intensity, physical virtuosity, and the grandeur of Paris Opera’s leading dancers.
Siddharta (2010) is a music film directed by Angelin Preljocaj, released on January 1, 2010 with a runtime of 1h 49m. It stars Nicolas Le Riche, Aurélie Dupont, Wilfried Romoli and Muriel Zusperreguy.
