Claire and Jeanne, twin virtuoso pianists, are admitted to a prestigious music university run by the intractable Professor Klaus Lenhardt. They carry the ambition of their father, who has sacrificed everything to make them the best. But an orphan's disease gradually weakens their hands, suddenly compromising their ascent. Refusing to give up on their dream, they have to fight and reinvent themselves to become, more than ever, prodigious. Based on true events.
Frédéric and Valentin Potier's Prodigieuses draws on the lives of twin sisters Audrey and Diane Pleynet to explore the challenges of two virtuoso pianists. The film, rich in emotion, is distinguished by an intelligent dramatic progression and meticulous direction. The performances of Camille Razat and Mélanie Robert are particularly striking, offering an authentic and luminous portrayal of sisterhood. With well-integrated musical passages, Prodigieuses is a captivating work that celebrates both talent and family ties.
