2008, English. Directed by Barbara Willis Sweete.
There are at least 20 million aspiring concert pianists in China. 25-year-old Yundi Li is a hero to most of them.
A documentary portrait of Chinese pianist Yundi Li that captures the poetic intensity of this young virtuoso as he works with the great Maestro Seiji Ozawa to prepare for his debut with the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra. This is interwoven with Yundi on tour in his home country, where we meet his family, gain insight into his upbringing and are exposed to the massive scale of piano culture in China.
