Für die junge Victoria Page wird ein Traum wahr: Impresario Lermontov holt sie in seine legendäre Balletttruppe.
Mit dem Ballett 'Die roten Schuhe' avanciert Victoria zur gefeierten Primaballerina. Doch wie in Andersens Märchenvorlage endet auch Victorias Geschichte tragisch: Hin- und hergerissen zwischen ihrer Liebe zum Komponisten Julian Craster und ihrer Verehrung für den dämonischen Lermontov tanzt sie auf den Abgrund zu...

Well-born young dancer Victoria Page (Moira Shearer) was thrilled when impresario Boris Lermontov (Anton Walbrook) offered a spot with his ballet company. She'd meet and quickly fall for accompanist Julian Craster (Marius Goring), but she'd deal with cruel fate after she left him in favor of a jealous Lermontov's promises to further her own ambition. Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger's lushly photographed, unforgettable movie experience co-stars Robert Helpmann, Léonide Massine. 133 min. Standard; Soundtrack: English Uncompressed PCM mono; Subtitles: English (SDH); audio commentary; documentary; interview; photo gallery; bonus short "The 'Red Shoes' Sketches" (1948); essay; more.
