Overview
"He didn't just write melodies. He painted pictures with sound."
This improbable true story follows French pianist and composer Olivier Messiaen. After World War II broke out, he joined the French army only to become a prisoner of war when France surrendered to Germany. While imprisoned in a POW camp, Messiaen connected with three other musicians and composed a masterpiece—Quartet for the End of Time. The musicians premiered the piece in the camp, with an audience of prisoners and guards, bringing hope in the midst of war. An incredible look at how a musical masterpiece came into being.
