There were several compelling reasons to make a film portrait of Maurizio Pollini: his immense talent as a pianist, his rare personality, his affability, intelligence and the desire he himself expressed to submit to this exercise for the very first time- probably because at the age of over 70, he felt that it was time to consent to a film portrait.
Based on an extended interview, the film also includes archival footage and excerpts from concerts and documentaries.
