[VdR '23] The director turns a piano competition into a reflection of the tension and suspense typical of documentaries about sports competitions. But at the same time he shows the efforts and also the sacrifices of many of the young applicants, and the excessive demands to which they are subjected by this type of contest. Although the first part is affected by the attention to too many points of view, it improves when it focuses on the group of contestants who have passed the first phases. And it abandons the position as an observer to convey the lack of concentration caused by fatigue.
