Paris-based sales company Loco Films has unveiled the trailer for WW2-set period drama “The Pianist’s Choice” directed by Jacques Otmezguine.
The story revolves around the fictional life of a gifted French pianist, François Touraine, who had no choice but to play for Nazis during war to save the woman he loved, Rachel, who was his teacher. Marked by that experience, he returns to France feeling like a different person. Until he meets Annette, who will help him to back on stage.
Oscar Lesage, who stars as Sue’s fling in Coralie Fargeat’s Oscar-nominated “The Substance,” plays Francois Touraine, opposite Pia Lagrange, Zoe Adjani, Philippe Torreton, Marie Torreton, Laurence Côte and Alain Manoukian, among others. The key crew includes composer Dimitri Naïditch whose credits include Claude Lelouch’s “Un plus une” and “Chacun sa vie.”
