Film Details

Nina Hoss (Barbara, Phoenix) is superb as a middle-aged violin teacher at a music-focused high school who convinces her dubious colleagues that a certain male student should be admitted to their program. Her dedication to this young violinist soon becomes all consuming, affecting her marriage, her career, and even her relationship with her own violinist son. “[This] tightly wound portrait of a music teacher on the verge of a nervous collapse serves up another note-perfect Nina Hoss solo.” –Variety. Cleveland premiere. Subtitles. 99 min.
