By the beginning of the 90s, almost everyone whom Rudolf Nureyev loved had already died, and he himself was preparing to leave for another world, he was terminally ill. “Go and dance!” the attending physician recommended to him, as he saw that it was good for him. To participate in the production of the ballet "Cristoforo" in the role of an Angel on the stage of the Budapest Opera and Ballet Theater in the early 90s, he was persuaded by his old friend Roland Bokor. Over the long years of his stage career, Nureyev danced so many roles of rebels, rebels, including Manfred, Hamlet, Faun, Lucifer. The role of the Angel will be his last dance, the dance of fate from Lucifer to the Angel.

Rudolf Nureyev is a great dancer of the 20th century, a star of classical and modern ballet. A hungry boy from Ufa, who grew up in a poor family, infinitely far from the world of ballet, he owes his incredible rise only to himself, his perseverance and talent. Many are talented, but Nureyev is one. A man who lived an extraordinary life.
