Eifman’s ballet ‘Anna Karenina’ is filled up with inner psychological energy; it is extremely precise in its emotional impact. Having cut out the counterplot lines of Leo Tolstoy’s novel, the choreographer focuses on Anna-Karenin-Vronsky love triangle. The drama of the re-born woman is expressed by means of body’s plasticity. In Eifman’s opinion, it is the passion, ‘the basic instinct’ that causes the crime against social norms, destroys mother love, and breaks Anna Karenina’s connection with her own soul. A woman, absorbed and smashed by passion, is ready to sacrifice everything. The choreographer says that this ballet is about the present, not the past; about the present-day emotions, and the clear parallels to the contemporary reality cannot leave the contemporary audience aloof. The psychological twists and turns of Tolstoy’s novel are rendered by the highest level of technique together with Boris Eifman’s choreography.


Ballet is a special field of realization of the psychological dramas, the possibility to penetrate into the sub-consciousness. Every new ballet is the search of unknown. Novel “Anna Karenina” has always interested me. While reading Tolstoy one feels how author fully understands the psychological world of his heroes, incredibly keenly and precisely describes the life in Russia.


In the novel “Anna Karenina” there’s not only the plunge into the psychological world of the heroine but also the psycho-erotic comprehension of her personality. Even in our contemporary literature we won’t find the similar passions, transformations, phantasmagorias. All that has become the core of my choreographic reflections. The measured rhythm of the Karenins’ life – the state service of the head of the family, the strict observation of the high society life rules – created the illusion of harmony and peace. Anna’s passion to Vronsky destroyed the habitual.


The sincerity of lovers’ feelings was rejected, it’s openness scared. The hypocrisy of Karenin was acceptable to everyone except Anna. She preferred the all-absorbing love to Vronsky to the mother’s duty to her son. And thus doomed herself to the life of outcast. There wasn’t any pleasure either in traveling or in rich estate or in habitual high society entertainment. There was the feeling of the tragic woman’s un-freedom from the sensual relationship. I understand the woman that becomes dependent on a man. This dependence - as any other - is the pain and suffering. Anna committed suicide to set herself free, to stop her dreadful and agonizing life.


For me Anna was a werewolf because two persons lived within her: externally –the woman of world who was known to Karenin, son and everyone around. The other was a woman immersed into the world of passions. What is more important – to keep the conventional illusion of duty and feelings harmony or to submit to the sincere passion?.. Do we have the right to destroy the family, to deprive the child of the mother’s care for the sake of the flesh rage?.. These questions troubled Tolstoy in the past, and we can’t avoid them today. And there are no answers! There is only the craving for being understood in life and in death…
