- An
intimate glimpse into the life of one of the greatest
concert pianists alive, the Argentinian Martha
Argerich. Talent and dedication don't require
histrionics: Argerich comes across as deeply sensitive
and intelligent, in awe of her craft and those who
have gone before her, paying particular homage to her
teacher, Friedrich Gulda as well as the composers "who
like her". The film takes us to Warsaw, where she won
the Chopin competition as a young girl, and around the
world, including her native Buenos Aires. Interspersed
with these are casual moments of conversation in which
she proves to be both remarkably unassuming and
inspired.
