About the film

What it’s about

Frédéric Chopin moves through Parisian high society in 1835, giving piano lessons and composing while concealing a serious lung disease. The pressure of his failing health turns composition into his sole obsession, driving him to push musical boundaries.

What hooks you

Eryk Kulm stars as Chopin, with Joséphine de la Baume as George Sand and Victor Meutelet as Liszt. Directed by Michał Kwieciński, the film draws on the era's decadent salons and the composer's race against his own body.

Who it’s for

It is a good pick for those who enjoy period dramas that intertwine artistic genius with personal frailty. It will appeal to viewers drawn to stories of creative obsession set against the glamour and excess of 19th-century Paris.
