Kyo to Ashita no Aida de

[Machine Translation] It is alive. They are dancing. And he is looking for tomorrow. This is a documentary film that follows the life of the "solitary" ballet dancer, Yasuyuki Suto. --The chosen beautiful person: Yasuyuki Suto. Suto has captivated the world's leading choreographers of our time, including Maurice Bejart and Matthew Bourne, one after the other. He discovered ballet at the age of 9 and found his place in the world. He has never spoken much about his life, but now for the first time he tells us about the thoughts he has been harboring in his heart. 2010's entire stage, his new work "The Garden of Time," his unique work "The Man Who Fell into Blankness" and "Apocryph," and a new solo dance piece newly choreographed for this film by Benei Nakamura, "Between Today and Tomorrow," are all filmed. In addition, Yukari Saito, Shuji Onodera, and Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui talk about Suto's true face, and rare rehearsal scenes with Maurice Bejart are also shown. The way Shudo lives his life, single-mindedly and sincerely facing the talent he has been given, makes us realize the "very simple but most important thing" that we usually forget to be aware of.
