A tender family drama about a gifted autistic child learning to connect with his estranged father through music and shared struggle.

Wolfgang, a 10-year-old boy with an IQ of 152, is forced to live with his father, Carles, whom he has never seen, after the sudden death of his mother. He has one obsession, to run away to Paris to study at the Grimald Academy and become the best pianist in the world. But what Wolfgang doesn’t know is that the biggest challenge is right in front of him and that is to get along with his father.
