A romantic biographical drama about Chopin's rise to musical prominence, tracing his journey from Poland through Paris while exploring the tension between artistic ambition and personal loyalty.

Prof. Joseph Elsner guides his protégé Frydryk Chopin through his formative years to early adulthood in Poland. The professor takes him to Paris, where he eventually comes under the wing and influence of novelist George Sand and rises to prominence in the music world, to the exclusion of his old friends and patriotic feelings towards Poland.
