Synopsis
Marguerite
Paris in the 1920s. Marguerite Dumont is a wealthy woman with a passion for music and the opera. For years, she has performed regularly for a circle of guests. But Marguerite sings tragically out of tune and no one has ever told her. Her husband and her close friends have always encouraged her in her illusions. Things become very complicated the day she gets it into her head to perform in front of a genuine public, at the Opera.
On a String
A young, Juilliard-trained violist is still living at home with her parents in the heart of NYC, while trying to make a living playing gigs with her friends in the homes of strangers.
