SYNOPSIS
"Piano Solo" is the passionate and haunting true story based on the life of jazz pianist Luca Flores. A tragic destiny already awaits Luca on a road in Africa when, at a very young age, he sees his mother perish in a car accident. Luca Flores becomes an acclaimed figure on the Italian and international jazz scenes, appearing with legendary greats such as Chet Baker and Dave Holland. The beautiful pianist’s music is spellbinding, irresistible, as inescapable as an obsessive theme. From the novel by Walter Veltroni "Il disco del mondo – Vita breve di Luca Flores, musicista".
