Generations come together in pink, blue, and yellow! An aging musician gets the chance of a lifetime to play one last big gig – but whether his daughter wants to come see him perform is another question.
The Pianoman was once a minor star in Bolivia. But that was a long time ago. Nowadays, he plays yesterday’s hits in third-rate clubs and hardly anyone in the audience pays attention. His wife has long left him, and his daughter no longer wants anything to do with him. He finally decides to end his life. But something holds him back. Then he runs into his old friend Gena, dressed in a rooster costume, who tells him that the owner of a famous club has been looking for him. Sure enough, the club owner offers him a gig. Unfortunately, someone has stolen the suit Pianoman is supposed to wear on stage. And he desperately hopes that his daughter will show up for the event, too.
Not since Michael Mann’s ›Miami Vice‹ has anyone experimented with the digital camera in quite this way. We are delighted to present this tragicomedy as a world premiere.
