Plot Summary: From first rehearsal to world premiere, "Ballet 422" takes us backstage at New York City Ballet as Justin Peck, a young up-and-coming choreographer, crafts a new work. "Ballet 422" illuminates the process behind the creation of a single ballet within the ongoing cycle of work at one of the world’s great ballet companies. New York City Ballet, under the artistic direction of Ballet Master in Chief Peter Martins, boasts a roster of more than 90 elite dancers and a repertory of works by many of the greatest choreographers in the history of the art form. When 25-year-old NYCB dancer Justin Peck begins to emerge as a promising young choreographer, he is commissioned to create a new ballet for the Company’s 2013 Winter Season. With unprecedented access to an elite world, the film follows Peck as he collaborates with musicians, lighting designers, costume designers and his fellow dancers to create Paz de la Jolla, NYCB’s 422nd new ballet. "Ballet 422" is an unembellished vérité portrait of a process that has never before been documented at New York City Ballet in its entirety.
