Program notes

Meet the talented pianist Piotr Anderszewski who shares his sincerest feelings and reflections in this documentary directed by Bruno Monsaingeon, a veritable road movie set in the artist's native Poland.

Bruno Monsaingeon has spent a great part of his life making movies about the greatest musicians of our times, sharing his passionate vision of artists with us. Each of his movies represents the fruit of many years spent with the artist (Gould, Richter, Menuhin, Oistrakh) or, on the contrary, the result of a sudden impulse or of a love at first sight—which is the case, perhaps, for Piotr Anderzsewski, "unquiet traveller": a fantastically vibrant portrait of this non-conformist pianist.

Somewhere between documentary and fiction, this road movie (or technically, railroad movie) takes us on a winter journey through Poland to Budapest, in a train in which the pianist has brought his grand piano... Anderszewski shares all through the film his innermost thoughts about music and about his artistic trials, revealing his true nature, generous but tormented.

From Warsaw to Budapest, through Zakopane and Poznan, Piotr Anderszewski rediscovers his native country at the slow pace of the train, gives some concerts here and there, and invites us to come with him… It is actually a triple journey, masterly directed by Bruno Monsaingeon, with a constant reflection between the artist's inner journey, the nostalgic journey which brings him back to his native Poland, and the journey of a soloist who travels all over the world to give over one hundred concerts a year.

A brilliantly constructed film, utterly poetic and deeply emotional, enhanced with exclusive, never-before-seen commentary by the director.
