Mademoiselle Paradis
Directed by Barbara Albert
Produced by LOOKSfilm, Nikolaus Geyrhalter Filmproduktion
A melancholic period drama about a blind pianist's fraught journey toward sight, exploring the tragic cost of miraculous cure and the tension between medical intervention and artistic gift.
18th century Vienna. Maria Theresia von Paradis, a gifted piano player and close friend of Mozart's, lost her eye-sight as a child. Desperate to cure their talented daughter, the Paradis entrust Maria to Dr. Mesmer, a forward-thinking-physician who gives her the care and attention that she requires. With the doctor's innovative techniques of magnetism, Maria slowly recovers her sight. But this miracle comes at a price as the woman progressively starts to lose her gift for music.
