- Synopsis
- The violonist Sigrun runs the Icelandic Chamber music group like an army general. The city of Reykjavik has supported the group through the years to play regular concerts in a rundown theater downtown but are calling it quits as the artistic quality of the band is stagnant. This can only lead to the disband of the group. Sigrun does not give up and recruits a world famous cello virtuoso - Klemens.
  
  The media goes nuts and the upcoming concert becomes viral news. The cultural committee decides to continue its financial support and then some. When Klemens shows up it is clear that everything rides on him performing. The media grants him exclusive interviews and coverage.
  
  It soon becomes clear that Klemens is quite the charmer … and an ass grabber and worse. Klemens is a great artist though and manages to get stellar performance from the chamber group. The excitement is groving and the tickets are sold out. As the orchestra prepares for the show disaster strikes: Klemens dies unexspectedly 10 minutes bofore the show. With a sold out performance there is only one truth that everything rides on: The show must go on … even if the star is dead.
