While eagerly learning to play fantastic Roma music in Serbia, Faith, a free-spirited British artist, falls hard for Branko, a young Roma violinist. Passionate and collaborative, their onstage chemistry fuels explosive performances and a star-crossed love affair. Dreaming of the music they will make together, the pair overlook language and geographic barriers, and marry. But after living with her new husband’s old-world family and traditions, it isn’t long before Faith misses the road. Despite his misgivings about leaving home for the first time, Branko borrows some of his wife’s confidence and they take their double act on tour. Creating together, living on the move and challenging themselves as artists sets their music alight, but tests their marriage in an unexpected way. Are the adoring crowds, sizzling performances and their passion enough to keep the music playing? Open hearts and a pumping soundtrack fuel this tender look at two artists in love.
