The premise of this film as indicated on the jacket is impossibly vague; it is described rather unhelpfully as an exploration of "love" and "generosity of spirit" and so forth. Once you see the video, you will understand that the film itself is so unfocused that there really is no adequate way to describe it. One might think of it as a patchwork of ideas that were spewed out during a brainstorm by first-year film students over Sunday brunch. There isn't a great deal of intelligence behind this production.

Superbly done. A must see for any Cello enthusiast.
At first I struggled on whether or not to give this film 4 stars or 5 stars, but then I watched it again and concentrated on the music, and realized that it was definately worthy of 5 stars! The story line was a little complex, but that was intended. The music, however, was the focus of the movie, and the music was flawless!

Yo-yo Ma is an extraordinary cellist, and plays with not only great respect for the composer and his music, but also, for lack of a better term, as if he's truely in love with the music. He seems genuinely interested in what went into the creation of the music, as well as his interpretation of it.

Lori Singer also plays the cello in this movie, and plays an accompaniment with Yo-yo Ma. I've been a huge fan of Lori Singers acting for years, but rarely get to view her playing the cello. She's an extremely talented musician, and I lack the words to adequately describe just how talented a cellist she is.

This is a movie you can sit back, close your eyes, and just enjoy the music. I recommend it highly for any true music lover.
