Language: English, subtitles: DutchGenre: classic, drama, romanceLife in the rugged forests of New Zealand's North Island is not what she imagined, nor is her relationship with her new husband, Stewart. Ada suffers anguish and loss when Stewart sells her piano to a neighbor, George, as the piano at least provided her with some means of communication. Ada learns from George that she can get her piano back by giving him piano lessons, but only under certain conditions. At first, Ada despises George, but slowly their relationship changes, propelling them into a dire situation. The Piano is a big screen beauty shot in picture-perfect New Zealand. The rugged country can be considered a character in itself. The film is set in the 19th century, but looking back, the film can also be seen as an interesting representation of the time in which it was made.

In many ways, the success of the film The Piano paved the way for New Zealand-born director Jane Campion. Last year, Campion became the third female director ever to win an Oscar (Power of the Dog), beating out big names like Steven Spielberg. The BBC’s Culture Critics’ Poll voted The Piano the best film ever made by a female director. Jane Campion is the only female filmmaker to win the Palme d’Or at Cannes, and this is her third feature film. The film will be preceded by a short introduction. ...
