Brilliant composer and violinist George Enescu is at the peak of his career and wants to compose an opera. He falls in love with a princess, Maruca, who inspires and challenges him. She is fascinated by Enescu and his music, she loves him passionately, but has a duty towards her husband and her two children. Destiny will release her from the chains of marriage, but will that be enough for the genius and the princess to live happily ever after?
If you are a discerning movie watcher and/or an African-American with a modicum of Black consciousness, this film isn’t for you. It would be better to watch the documentary ‘They Fight’ to see the impactful, emotional story of Walter Manigan and the young men of DC’s Ward 8.
Self expression among teenagers is explored in the live adaptation of Jerry Spinelli's novel of the same name.
The human experience is described through the eyes of a marginalized outsider, neither judgmental nor invested, just an observant donkey.
That gut-wrenching feeling you have while watching it is okay but needed, and you, the viewer, will be okay.
