The American is based on the story of Joy Womack (Talia Ryder), one of the very few Americans ever accepted into Russia's elite Bolshoi Ballet. Testing the limits of dedication, determination, sacrifice and virtuosity, Joy's brilliance is an inspirational journey into the most competitive, hostile dance school in the world. Spurred on by Tatiyana Volkova (Diane Kruger), the Bolshoi's magnetic and masterful tutor, and the searing passions of first love, Joy's leap into the unknown touches immortal perfection. But at what price? The film features an international cast including Oleg Ivenko, Natasha Alderslade, Natalia Osipova, Charlotte Ubben, Borys Szyc, Tomasz Kot, and Karolina Gruszka.
