Dir. Ernesto González | Mexico, 2024
Spanish with English subtitles | 78 mins | Documentary

David dreams of being a pianist like his father, José Luis, who believes it impossible due to his son’s physical characteristics: short arms, hands with four fingers and limited hearing. Thanks to his tenacity, David shows him that he can play in his own way and together they begin a musical path that culminates in a new challenge for David: premiering the difficult concerto for piano and orchestra that his father composed for him.
