A Reality Casting Extravaganza
When bribing the Jury is only one of many ways for victory, who will withstand the pressure? In the heart of the Swiss alps, young classical musicians think they compete for the chance of their lives. With the feel of talent show television, we take a surreal yet truthful look behind the scenes of a music competition. The main characters are the world famous music comedy duo Igudesman & Joo. The contestants are violin and piano duos from all over the world, aged from 8 to 88. Besides conventional repertoire, they are obliged to play theatrical and humorous works.
