SYNOPSIS
PRIMAVERA. Venice, early 18th century. Renowned for its exceptional music programme, the Pièta orphanage is home to Cecilia, a 20-year-old violin virtuoso. Despite her extraordinary talent, Cecilia remains confined within the orphanage and like all the girls there, her only escape seems to be to get married. Yet, her life changes dramatically when Antonio Vivaldi, a brilliant and ambitious composer, is contracted as the new violin teacher. Through a complex artistic relationship with Vivaldi and his music, Cecilia finds the strength to challenge the destiny that once seemed inevitable.
