Storyline

The world’s most talented young pianists compete in the International Chopin Piano Competition, held every five years in Warsaw, Poland. A rare behind the scenes look at the triumphant highs and crushing lows of competition, Pianoforte is both a testament to the remarkable power of music and an intimate coming-of-age portrait.

The spirit of competition, in both its heart-racing fulfillment and overwhelming tolls of anticipation, is felt in the thoughtful execution of “Pianoforte.”

The film’s greatest achievement is the way it highlights the joylessness that can emerge from devoting one’s life to the pursuit of perfection.

“Pianoforte” has a distinct bittersweetness that makes it more introspective, if not quietly haunting.

While the structure of the film is not perfect, I enjoyed following the subjects of the documentary through the competition and finding out which of our protagonists passed on through the next rounds.
