Chopin, Chopin!

Paris, 1835. Fryderyk Chopin is 25 years old and a favorite of the Parisian salons, the aristocracy, and the King of France. No major event can take place without his participation. We see him during nocturnal escapades and after-parties following concerts. Mostly he is full of energy and covers up his illness with a joke. His life is coming to an end, but Fryderyk continues unabated. He composes masterpieces, also on commission. Because of financial obligations, he gives piano lessons. His friends admire him and women desire him as a lover.
