拉娜(科琳娜·哈弗奇 Corinna Harfouch 饰)是一位拥有杰出天赋的天才钢琴手,在这一领域里有着无量的前途,然而,为了爱情,拉娜放弃了自己的事业,选择金盆洗手在家安心的相夫教子。本以为自己的牺牲能够换来丈夫的感激,但一切似乎并没有像拉娜所想像的那样发展下去,丈夫的离去,儿子的疏远,都将拉娜一步一步的推向了人生的深渊之中。 拉娜的儿子维特(汤姆·希林 Tom Schilling 饰)同样也是一名杰出的钢琴家,在拉娜六十岁那年,她震惊的发现,儿子竟然没有邀请她去参加自己的首场钢琴独奏会,更离谱的是,维特邀请了父亲和父亲的现任女友。It's Lara's 60th birthday, and she has every reason to celebrate: this evening, her son Viktor will be giving the most important piano concert of his career. Lara was, after all, the one who'd mapped out and driven his musical career. Yet Viktor has been unreachable for weeks and nothing indicates that Lara will be welcome at his debut performance. Without further ado, she buys up all the remaining tickets and hands them out to everyone she meets. The more Lara strives to make the evening successful, however, the more events get out of control.
