It’s 1989, and Susanna, a young Jewish-Australian violinist, has earned the opportunity of a lifetime: a scholarship to Berlin. As the Berlin Wall comes crashing down, Germany teeters on the brink of transformation, and Susanna finds herself swept into the chaos.
Guided by Stefan Heinemeyer, a renowned violinist and grandson of a Nazi, Susanna begins composing a piece in honor of her grandmother, Mirla, who perished in the Buchenwald concentration camp. Retracing Mirla’s final footsteps, Susanna embarks on a journey of self-discovery, reconnecting with her heritage and pushing her musical talent to unimaginable heights.
But as forbidden feelings for Stefan emerge, Susanna must confront the traumas of history, love, and identity. Can she reclaim her voice as a composer, musician, and woman—and finally lay her haunted past to rest?
