At the beginning of March, a big competition for over 200 young ballet dancers was supposed to take place in Kyiv. Then the brutal war in Ukraine began. The competition had to be cancelled. Instead of ballet, bombs were falling. Young people flee the city. Dancers, usually between the ages of 12 and 18, were arriving at borders in Poland, Hungary and Romania, sometimes with little more than the clothes on their backs. The ballet organization YAGP have been placed the ballet students at prestigious ballet schools throughout Europe to escape the war. Now the youngsters are alone in a new country, often without parents. But it is also a great opportunity to start a career in the most prestigious ballet schools in the world. But the biggest dream of the Ukrainian students: to be able to dance in Ukraine again one day.
