Balletboyz: Young Men

The internationally acclaimed, all-male BalletBoyz present the first ever full length feature film to be made by a dance company. A world premiere on BBC Two, Young Men follows a group of young soldiers as they experience the indiscriminate brutality of warfare. 　　Shot on location in northern France, and premiering in the month of Remembrance Sunday, the film follows a young solider and his squadron's experience of basic training, combat, and ultimately, the destruction of modern warfare. The film is shot without words, instead using the set and carefully choreographed dance to depict the devastation of a continent. 　　The characters themselves remain ambiguous, representative of the experiences of young men of every nation. The dancers, all who are members of the BalletBoyz ten-strong Company, are largely only just of conscription age.
