Dancing on Glass (es|'''Las niñas de cristal'''|links=no|lit=Glass Girls) is a 2022 Spanish drama film directed by Jota Linares which stars María Pedraza and Paula Losada.
The plot follows the friendship developed between two ballerinas dancing for a ballet company, as the two deal with work pressure and others' expectations.[1]
The screenplay was also penned by the director alongside Jorge Naranjo. Produced by Federation Spain (a newly-born Spanish subsidiary of Federation Entertainment), the film began shooting in Madrid on 8 February 2021.[2] [3] Shooting wrapped by April 2021.[4] [5]
The film was presented on 25 March 2022 in the main competition of the 25th Málaga Film Festival.[6] It debuted on Netflix streaming on 8 April 2022.[7]
Javier Ocaña of El País assessed that Dancing on Glass, featuring a "commendable physical and artistic work by Pedraza, and a formidable solidity in Martínez and Baglivi", is a "more than appreciable third film by a director still in his beginnings who, perhaps, has been overwhelmed by ambition in an excessively bizarre denouement".[8]
