The year is 1868. The city, Vienna. The music, exhilarating. Yet all is not well with Johann Strauss, Jr., the darling of waltzing. Haunted by the constant pressure to outdo himself with each new composition, Strauss meets Nicholas, a humble stable boy who fears his brutal stepfather. To their surprise, the composer and the boy find in one another a piece of life's emotional puzzle, discovering the healing bond of trust and embarking on a collaboration that will be music to the world's ears. 51 minutes.
