Trailer Park | Mozart's Sister
Rene Feret's film offers a fresh perspective on the often-dramatised myth of the child prodigy.
Originally the featured performer, Nannerl Mozart (Marie Feret) has given way to Wolfgang as the main attraction, as their strict but loving father Leopold (Marc Barbe) tours his talented offspring in front of the royal courts of pre-French revolution Europe.
Approaching marriageable age and now forbidden to play the violin or compose, Nannerl chafes at the limitations imposed on her gender.
But a friendship with the son and daughter of Louis XV offers her ways to challenge the established sexual and social order. Mozart's Sister was shot on location in Versailles.
