Join the writer-director and stars of Amazon’s Birds of Paradise as they talk with The Cut’s Kerensa Cadena about their new ballet thriller.

Set in an elite Paris ballet academy, Diana Silvers and Kristine Froseth play young dancers competing for a coveted contract with the Paris Opera Ballet, as they navigate through the dark waters of ambition, tragedy, rivalry and desire. Sarah Adina Smith says, “As a filmmaker, I was haunted by the question of whether one can achieve greatness at the highest level and still be a good person, or whether the soul is necessarily compromised along the way.” Go behind the scenes with Smith, Silvers and Froseth as they talk about the making of the film, their characters, and the price of greatness in the gorgeous, ruthless world of ballet.
