Isadora (Vanessa Redgrave) burns her parents marriage license as a little girl and pledges her life to `Beauty and Art`. Whilst her genius for dance and free spirit causes a sensation across Europe, her naïve, effervescent radiance leads to an almost accidental succession of lovers in Paris Singer (Jason Robards), Gordon Craig (James Fox) and Sergel Essenin (Ivan Tchenko). As she sips champagne and dictates her memoirs at the Negresco Hotel in Nice, Isadora reflects upon a life and art that were anything but conventional. (Odeon)
