- Summary:
- Ka-jeng is a 17-year-old music prodigy from a well-to-do family. At the age of 11 he is invited to play Beethoven's Concerto for Piano No. 1 with a professional orchestra in the Czech Republic. Despite all his gains, he begins to question incessantly about his life. This documentary goes deep down into his mind to review his thoughts, his struggles and his choices. It is a story of a genius, but also a story of everyone who laments their unrecognized talents while brewing their dream-come-true.
