Crazy Horse

Frederick Wiseman, the internationally famous American documentary maker, goes behind the scenes of the creation of Désirs, the current show at the Parisian cabaret the Crazy Horse, which was inaugurated in September 2009. Wiseman's camera goes to the heart of this Parisian institution to record the creation of the new show, the most avant-garde of all Parisian cabarets. Day by day and week by week, he follows the story of this amazing creation through its main characters: the legendary dancers such as Zula Zazou, Nooka Karamel, Fiamma Rosa, Loa Vahina etc., the stage managers and costume designers, plus Philippe Decouflé, the choreographer, and Ali Mahdavi, the show's artistic director.
