Scenario

You will meet a stunning dancer from the Paris Opera Ballet. Florie, Marion and Suzanne have shared the same dream since childhood: to become dancers at the Opéra Garnier. For years, they worked, hoped, and sacrificed... until the day when the doors of the Palais Garnier finally opened before them.
But when the time came to make their dearest wish, standing before a mysterious statue in the Opera House, none of them asked to become a dancer. Each of them made a completely different choice.
Today, one of them will invite you to discover her story in Un Amour d'Opéra.
