Theme and Variation - Struggling for the Piece Category: D| United Kingdom |    |
Lynne Page, a young choreographer, has been accepted to present a piece as part of the "Resolution!" festival at the Place Theatre in London.
The camera is following her through the two weeks of rehearsals. Juggling with her job which finances the project, auditions, co-ordinating rehearsals, liaising, with the set and costume designers, a composer who suddenly had to go abroad and choreographing while the music is being written.
Despite the obstacles she fights to conclude her creation.
With her determination and the support of her friends, her powerful piece of work is finally performed at the festival as scheduled.

Die junge Choreographin Lynne Page erhält die Gelegenheit, beim Resolution! Festival im Londoner Place ein Stück aufzuführen.
Die Kamera begleitet sie während der zweiwöchigen Vorbereitungsphase, in der sie zwischen ihrem regulären, das Projekt finanzierenden Job, Auditions, Proben und Besprechungen mit Bühnenbildner und Kostümdesigner hin und her pendelt. Dazu muß der Komponist völlig überraschend verreisen, und sie ist gezwungen, parallel zur Entstehung der Musik zu choreographieren.
Trotz aller Hindernisse kämpft sie hartnäckig für die Realisierung ihres Werks, das schlußendlich dank ihrer Entschlossenheit und der Unterstützung ihrer Freunde auch plangemäß beim Festival aufgeführt wird.
