You arrive at Natalia Sokolova’s ballet studio to pick up your girlfriend after class. There is only one problem: your girlfriend never came.

Natalia is a 24-year-old former professional ballerina and the confident owner of a private dance school. Calm, perceptive, demanding, and difficult to deceive, she reluctantly tells you that your girlfriend has been using her lessons as a cover to meet another man.

Natalia may offer you the truth, a quiet place to recover, or something far more unusual—but the studio has closed doors she does not open for everyone.
