SCREENPLAY BY GEORGE BLOOMFIELD
FROM AN IDEA BY LOUISA VARALTA

An artist/painter's frustrated career leads her into a wild, hilarious, and sometimes poignant fantasy relationship with Mozart. He chooses her to be his musical interpreter and prima concert pianist. But she can't play the piano. He insists that she can. She does, and achieves world recognition until the fantasy bursts and she returns to life as it really is.
