The Song of Names

(2019)Directed by François Girard114 min · PG-13Drama, Music
“Music brought them together. Time would tear them apart.”

Martin Simmonds (Tim Roth) has spent decades wondering where his boyhood friend went on the night he was meant to play his first public concert. Dovidl Rapoport (Clive Owen) was the Polish violin prodigy taken in by Martin's London family after the Holocaust left him an orphan. When Martin finally finds a lead, he sets out to trace the missing violinist, and François Girard moves between the boys of the war years and the men they became.
