FilmWhere Music Grows
Denmark, Sweden2026documentary90'What if, for a moment, one could escape rivalry in music and the pressure to be perfect, and retreat to a secluded Danish farm to feed the chickens, tend a vegetable patch, cook together and put on mini recitals for the cows? Budding virtuosos from various countries come together in exactly such a place. Before they enter the professional world of classical music and learn its strict rules, they can discover what a musical community is. The film depicts the lives of young artists for whom the word ‘ecology’ signifies not only a healthy model of rural life but also a sustainable style of work protecting against stress, fatigue and burnout.
