Plot :
Meg, a young ballet student, idolizes the school's top ballerina, the shallow Arianne Bouchet. Meg is distressed when she learns visiting prima ballerina Darina rather than Bouchet will play the lead in the school's production of "Swan Lake". So on opening night, Meg arranges an accident, to destroy the usurper's career. The accident injures Anna Darina's spine and ends her dancing career. Arianne Bouchet becomes a star, while Meg is torn with guilt.
