The film tells the story of David — a young man who dreams of becoming a pianist like his father. His father believes it’s impossible because David was born with short arms (each with four fingers) and limited hearing. Thanks to determination and perseverance, David proves he can play in his own way. They begin a journey together, culminating in a major concert with an orchestra, composed specially for him.
Presented by Anna Erina, photographer and coordinator of the “Cinema Without Barriers” festival.
