La corbata amarilla
(The Yellow Tie)
Serge Ioan Celibidache
Romania
2025
(145')

The extraordinary life of Sergiu Celibidache, one of the most celebrated conductors of the 20th century. A singular artist, admired yet misunderstood. From his childhood in Romania under the strict authority of a disciplined father, to his painful departure from home to pursue his musical vocation; from his struggle to survive in wartime Germany to his rise, fall, and subsequent resurgence in an unimaginable life and career spanning seven decades and the four corners of the world. This is the true story of an exceptional individual with an extraordinary destiny. An artist's battle against prejudice, compromise, convention, and commercialism. The inspiring lifelong quest of a man determined to follow his dream and win the elusive acceptance of those closest to his heart.

> With Serge Ioan Celebidachi (director and co-writer) and James Olivier (co-writer and producer) in attendance.
