Constructed like a detective mystery on a grand scale, the film opens the night of the much-anticipated first public performance by Dovidl Rapoport, a Polish musical prodigy. When he doesn't show up, his best friend Martin is left to tell the packed theatre that the performance will not go on. Decades later, an adult Martin (Tim Roth), serving as a judge in a musical competition, watches a young student prepare to play in Dovidl's unique style. This moment sends Martin, over the objections of his wife Helen, on a transcontinental search. As the mystery of the disappearance unravels, Martin finds himself consumed by memories of the deep bond between the two boys — and also uncovering elements of Dovidl's tormented life that Martin simply couldn't have fathomed at the time.

englanti A touching story that makes you think, but told in such a strangely detached style that I was much more impressed by the beautiful music than by the movie itself. Tim Roth has matured like wine as the years have gone by, and his authentic acting really appealed to me. Clive Owen was almost unrecognizable with his beard, unfortunately it rather clouds his expressions. (60%) ()
