Synopsis:
In 1837, a single mother with two grown children, George Sands, falls for an unknown artist who has just arrived in Paris – Frederic Chopin. This family drama, intricately woven with the music of Chopin, shows us how devastating the power of love and envy of fame can be.

“Antczak is a master at the sweeping period romantic epic.”
