Nicolas, forty years, is a composer of music. One day, his wife Mathilde learns that she has a serious breast cancer that requires intense chemotherapy. While Nicolas prepares to leave his work in plan to take care of her, Mathilde exhorts him to finish the symphony that began. She tells him she needs to register her forces in a joint fight. Nicolas transfigured by this vital stakes, plays every night Mathilde, the piano, in their bedroom, the room of the spouses, the symphony he writes to help him heal. Inspired by what he himself experienced with his wife as he wrote his novel Cinderella ten years ago, Eric Reinhardt delivers a striking meditation on the power of beauty, art, love, which can literally save lives.--Translation of page 4 of cover by Babelio
