Kurt Masur, Heaven please!

This portrait of Kurt Masur, the widely-acclaimed German conductor and probably the last with such an intimate knowledge of German composers such as Beethoven, reviews the final six years of his career that he spent with the National Orchestra of France, through very touching interviews and testimonies given by his musicians. This production tells of a love story between Kurt Masur and classical music, but also unexpectedly between the conductor and his musicians!
