Total Harmony

Poland2017fiction31'Konkurs polski (2017)

Ewa is the first violinist in a symphony orchestra while Adam plays the last double bass in the ensemble. During one of the concerts, he suffers a stroke. In the borderline moment between life and death, at the end of a long brightly lit hall, he meets Chopin, Gershwin and Beethoven. This vision makes him realise that he does not feel fulfilled as an artist or man. He starts his journey towards the eponymous harmony from observing ten commandments, which is not easy at all.
