THE CHILD PRODIGY

A boy's fingers skilfully move on a piano 's keyboard. For this boy nothing seems easy: the notes tumble in his head. These gifted hands belong to Andre Matthieu, the "Canadian Motzart" as called in his country. "Child Prodigy" is the story of this piano perfectionist, a melodramatic journey in his enigmatic life. From triumphs and worldwide tours to the freefall filled with alcohol and depression Luc Dionne's lens portrays a real tragedy written with notes, be it allegro or adagio, following the beats of a sadly missed composer.
