Hans introduced me to Kara Talve who wrote the score for the TV series of The Tattooist of Auschwitz on an old upright piano which had belonged to her grandmother, whose life was saved as a child during the Second World War by her teacher, Andrée Levallois.
That piano, and the story of love and courage Hans encouraged Kara to share with me, formed the basis of The Piano Teacher of Montparnasse.' Heather Morris
'Maman said you would keep me safe and that I should trust you completely.'
' Your Maman was right.'
'Will you come back? Promise you'll come back.'
'I promise. I will always come back to you. Always.'
In 1942, the Nazis come for a Jewish family living in Montparnasse, occupied Paris. In the chaos of their arrest, eleven-year-old Josie flees to the only person she trusts: her piano teacher, Andrée Levallois, secretly an operative in the French Resistance.
Andrée takes her in as a member of the family, spreading their rations and risking everything to keep her safe. But soon the authorities close in, and both Andrée and Josie are caught in a desperate race to stay alive.
Epic in scope and inspired by real events and people, The Piano Teacher of Montparnasse is a gripping, heartbreaking and uplifting story of ordinary people in extraordinary times.
