    Beautiful

    This short story delivers emotions, history and music in a very effective way. The history behind the violin makes it very unique and emotional. Its quite remarkable how it makes you feel sadness, happiness and hopeful in a very short amount of time.
    Kirpianuscus

    touching. in profound sense

    It is far to be the right word. Because the story itself remains speechless. Joe. Miss Kokoe. And Brianna. A violin. Like bridge between generations. Like testimony. And legacy. It is not easy to write about this film who is a box with unique stories. Because the story of Joe is, in fact, the story of an entire century. The happiness, the Shoah, the desire to change a life, the survive, the opportunity for a talented and sensitive young violinist. And this does this film a must see. Only see it. For discover the world. In the right light.
