This is a documentary with some fictional elements, with an approach somewhat similar to that used by Julien Temple in "The Ecstasy of Wilko Johnson" (2015), which has been a successful performer on the festival circuit. The film examines the visits that the legendary Russian ballet dancer Rudolf Nureyev made to Turkey between 1980 and 1990. The film includes contributions by many of those who knew Nureyev during this period - principally his long-time friend Yasemin Pirinccioglu, who worked with him to stage "The Sleeping Beauty" in Istanbul, and is the keeper of his Turkish archive. It combines these with hitherto unseen footage from private films made at the time.
