    Synopsis

    Documentary tribute to the pianist Brigitte ENGERER, who disappeared on June 23, 2012. Far from a traditional biography, the film focuses on the most moving moments of the musician’s life: her childhood and life in Russia, her musical friends, her Pianoscope festival and her last concert in the company of Boris Berezovsky at the Salle Pleyel in Paris... Through poignant archive footage, Brigitte Engerer tells us the story of her life.

    An intensely moving portrait.
