The dark side of perfection

The film Black Swan is about a ballet dancer called Nina who wants to be a perfect dancer. She finally gets the chance to dance the roles of the White Swan and Black Swan in Swan Lake

She wants to give the perfect performance. But she can't handle the pressure and begins to go insane.

I learned a lot from this film. It is important for us to de-stress because stress could destroy us. We shouldn't push ourselves too hard.

Nothing in this world is perfect. As long as we have tried our best, we will have no regrets, whatever the result.

Nina's final performance is perfect, but it comes with a high price. What is the real worth of perfection?
