Alexandra von Triessen, a shy yet gifted pianist, faces the pressure of cutthroat competition and her own insecurities at the prestigious International Ketterling Piano Competition. Raised by cold and distant parents, Alexandra found solace in music, channeling her deepest emotions into her art. At Ketterling, she crosses paths with Sebastian D’Antonio, a magnetic and ambitious pianist whose dazzling charisma masks the shadows of his fractured past. While Alexandra is drawn to Sebastian’s charm, she is equally captivated—and haunted—by his estranged brother, Conrad, a mysterious and reclusive genius with an unearthly talent for composition. As Alexandra navigates the high-stakes world of Classical Music, she is forced to choose between playing it safe with her repertoire or taking a bold risk that could either make or break her career. Nicole Conn is a visionary filmmaker, novelist, and storyteller whose work has redefined LGBTQ+ cinema. Most famous for her debut feature, Claire of the Moon in 1992
