"A Beautiful Tragedy" is a documentary about 15 year old Oksanna who follows her mothers dream to see her become a prima ballerina. She decides to sacrifice her youth and devote nine years of her childhood to a ballet school in Russia.

We encounter jealousy and beauty, and beauty comes with a price: most of the girls in the school are anorectic. From the age of eight or nine until they are grown-ups they see their parents twice a year. For most children who attend the school, ballet represents their only chance in life for a future. Every year 500 children will come to audition. 30 students will be accepted. They have beautiful dreams and work unbelievably hard to achieve their goal. After nine years of training 30 students will graduate. One or two will get a job.
