Summary:

An emotional detective story spread over two continents and a half-century. Beneath the film's stunning and pulsing musical revelations burn the horror of war, and the lost souls extinguished from history.
"...François Girard's sweeping historical drama about a man searching for his childhood best friend -- a violin prodigy orphaned in the Holocaust -- who vanished decades before on the night of his first public performance."-- Container.
