Château de Versailles part II

Puissance, Plaisir, Lumiere.
Power, Pleasure, Light.

Le Roi Dance is a movie about the life of King Louis XIV. Louis XIV is represented as a young king that wanted to entertain its citizens.
Louis XIV had a lot of influence on the development of ballet. Although ballet emerged during the Renaissence in the 15th century, Louis XIV developed it futher, which is why ballet vocabulary is in French.
He was not only the creater of these - for that time - new kinds of choreographies; he was the main character too. Amaze yourself about the skills of this king by watching a little piece of this movie.

Le Roi Danse: The King that entertains its citizens personally.
