JURIJ

Category: Edition 2001

Synopsis
Jurij is an almost blind child with an exceptional musical talent. Since his mother's death, a violinist, his father, a musicologist, has prevented him from making contact with the outside world, to transform him into the perfect violinist. At the end of the tenth year, Jurij is ready, in the judgment of his father, to reveal his talent. But at the Jurij concert it does not sound. The father, furious at failure, when the child escapes from the train they travel, does not try to follow him. Jurij, found in a state of apparent autism, is locked up in an orphanage. Here Isabella, an Italian psychotherapist on a mission in Budapest, manages to establish contact with the child and takes him to Italy to treat him.
