Mozartballs

Release date: 28 January 2006 (Germany)

Tells the story of a handful of very eccentric folks who have connections to Mozart in one way or other. There's a woman from Oklahoma who truly believes she's Mozart reincarnated; a sad old gentleman in Switzerland who treks to Mozart's grave to tidy it up and claims Mozart saved his life; there's the first Austrian astronaut who went to the Mir Space Station and brought Mozartballs (the candy) with him; and the odd Mr. Cope who creates computer programs which create music based on algorithms ... in this case Mozart's lost Concerto for Cello.

These folks are a truly strange bunch but demonstrate the 'power' Mozart and his music have in our lives. Well worth seeing if it passes through your town.

My rating 9 out of 10.
