Another Maestra film is coming your way

Another Maestra film is coming your way

It’s called Momentum and it tracks the transfer of conductor Joana Mallwitz from Nuremberg State Theater to the Berlin Konzerthaus.

Mallwitz, 37, is seen at work and at home, with her husband, the tenor Simon Bode, and their child. Old pal Igor Levit has a walk-on part.

In the closing scene Bode says he wept during the Mahler symphony. She replies: ‘Even though it wasn’t quite together?’

The film goes on general release in Germany this week.
