Summary: Three generations of Cuban ballet dancers are portrayed in this beautiful festival favorite. Alicia Alonso’s splendor still radiates, encouraging the dreams of young dancers.

Together, they offer insight into the past, present, and future of Cuba’s national ballet.. Official Selection at Locarno Film Festival. Special Jury Mention at the Visions du Reel Film Festival.. "Poetic, lyrical and profound, HORIZONTES strings sequences to create a reflection on perseverance.
