Loosely based on real events from the early 19th century, Margherita Vicario’s energetic drama chronicles the work of a group of female musicians living in a religious institution outside Venice – including a prodigiously talented composer – who are tasked with performing for the new Pope. A very contemporary take on the past, replete with bravura musical performances, this stunning feature debut marks Vicario as a talent to watch.
