Stéphanie Argerich directs this documentary portraying her
relationship with parents Stephen Kovacevich and Martha Argerich.
Being the daughter of two world-renowned classical pianists,
Stéphanie Argerich observes the struggles her mother encountered
trying to raise three children while also maintaining an
award-winning artistic career that took her across the globe. Using
family videos, Argerich traces their private history over two
decades which took them to countries including her mother's native
Argentina, Poland, Japan, her father's home in London, her mother's
new home in Belgium and Switzerland where Stéphanie now works and
lives with her elder sister, violinist Lyda Chen.
Mariano Nante directs this documentary that focuses on two families

Through interviews with concert pianist Martha Argerich and her
neighbours, the Tiempo-Lechner family, the film explores the life
of a pianist as the latest prodigy of Sergio Tiempo and Karin
Lechner, 13-year-old Natasha Binder, begins to shoulder the burden
of her family's musical heritage.
Martha Argerich, described by Gramophone as "unquestionably one of the greatest pianists of all time", celebrates her 80th birthday on June 5th. More than five decades after her triumphant breakthrough at the International Chopin Piano Competition in Warsaw, her brilliance and flair remain as irresistible as ever.
This legendary all-Chopin recital, recorded in 1965, has been newly remastered for both CD and digital release. Its centrepiece is the Sonata No. 3 in B minor, which is framed by three mazurkas, a nocturne, a scherzo and a polonaise. "Argerich performs with such white-hot intensity that it scarcely feels like a studio recording," wrote BBC Music Magazine. "Her volcanic energy can leave you scrambling to keep up, but the Third Sonata is breathtaking in its spontaneity."
The producer of the Chopin album, Suvi Raj Grubb, declared that: "Argerich was quite the most formidable player we had ever come across ... Nothing would have been beyond this woman."
