Our 8pm screening is the British comedy, Greatest Days.
JOIKA
New Zealand 2023, Drama
105 mins, Rated M (offensive Language)
Cast: Talia Ryder, Diane Kruger.
Written and directed by James Napier Robertson (who also wrote Whina), ‘Joika’ tells the story of Joy Womack, a fifteen-year old aspiring ballerina who becomes one of the first Non-Russian dancers to ever be accepted into the elite world of the Bolshoi Ballet.
Under legendary teacher Tatiyana Volkova, Joy trains with the goal of becoming a Prima Ballerina with the Bolshoi. But, behind the beauty of dance is a world of ruthless competition. Joy pushes her body and her mind in her single-minded journey to discover what it means to reach true greatness and perfection.
A fascinating revelation of what someone can do for success.
