Summary: The French-language title translates into English as "like a bird," and applies to celebrated dancer Monique Loudrieres, the subject of this biographical documentary by director Dominique Delouche. Delouche shot much of the performance footage at the Paris Opera, where Loudrieres interprets selections from works including Giselle, Don Quixote and In the Night as the cameras role. ~ Nathan Southern, Rovi
