Accent on the Offbeat is a cinema vérité film about the creation and premiere of the ballet
Jazz (Six Syncopated Movements), composed by trumpet virtuoso
Wynton Marsalis and choreographed by Ballet Master in Chief
Peter Martins of the New York City Ballet. A focus of the film is the remarkable contrast - in background, temperament, style and creative approach - between Martins and Marsalis as they unite the disparate worlds of ballet and jazz.
