Emmanuel Tjeknavorian
The film accompanies the young musician Emmanuel Tjeknavorian along his career path from a very personal and exclusive perspective.
Born in Vienna in 1995 into a family of musicians, as the son of a pianist and a conductor, Emmanuel Tjeknavorian received violin lessons from the age of 5 and gave his first public performance with an orchestra already at the age of 7.
The film accompanies the young musician along his career path from a very personal and exclusive perspective - from the rising star as a violinist, who travels the world and conquers one concert hall after the next, to the very private, philosophizing young man, who is bursting with energy and new ideas, and is standing at the successful beginning of his second career as a conductor.
