The Sorcerer's Apprentice (1955) is a short film made by Michael Powell for Norddeutscher Rundfunk (NDR) West German television.
It is the 1797 Goethe story of the same name presented as a ballet performed by the Frankfurt Opera with Sonia Arova as the solo dancer.
Michael Powell was hired to direct it for his old friend Hein Heckroth.
Heckroth had already done the design and set everything up so Powell appears to have had little input.
