"The King is Dancing tells the story of Louis XIV (Benoit Magimel) heir to the throne of a troubled kingdom. The future king, a shy young man, has his destiny altered when musician Jean-Baptiste Lully (
Boris
Terral
) and the famed playwright Molière (Tcheky Karyo) enter his life. They immediately recognize the young king's talent for dance and with breathtaking artistry they compose and stage ballets that glorify Louis's image. The young monarch is transformed into the The Royal Dancer -- The Sun King, a God on earth. This is the latest film from award-winning director Gerard Corbiau whose work also includes Le Maitre de Musique and Farinelli for which he received his second Oscar nomination for Best Foreign Film in 1995."--Container.
