v
Pianists Martha Argerich and Stephen Kovacevich, two prominent figures in classical music, are accompanied and observed by their daughter Stéphanie. An intimate family portrait and the daughter’s examination of a “goddess,” her mother. How can motherhood and career, but also a partner relationship and self-fulfilment be unified in this day and age? A journey into the Argerich matriarchy.

"Un docu d'une proximité aussi émouvante que troublante." 4 étoiles.  24HEURES

"Choc émotionnel, tant cette rencontre mère fille, tendre parfois cruelle, prend aux tripes." LE FIGARO

"A warm, loving portrait of the relationship between the celebrated pianist Martha Argerich and her youngest daughter, this affectionate documentary invites viewers into the intimacy of their home without any restrictions." - SCREEN DAILY

"Un documentaire peu banal sur sa mère argentine Martha, l’une des plus grandes pianistes classiques. Une réussite artistique et intime totale, loin de tous les docucul hagiographiques, qui nous parlent d’héritage, des mystères insondables de la famille, de la parenté et des frontières floues entre les cultures, les langues et les genres." - LES INROCKS
