SYNOPSIS
After a classical string quartet’s 25 years of global success, its cellist and older member Peter decides that he must retire when he learns he has Parkinson’s Disease. For the others, that announcement proves a catalyst for letting their hidden resentments come to the surface while the married members’ daughter has disruptive desires of her own. All this threatens to tear the group apart even as they are famous for playing Beethoven’s String Quartet No.14, opus 131, a piece that is played non-stop no matter how life interferes. An emotionally uplifting drama with remarkable performances from Christopher Walken, Catherine Keener, Philip Seymour Hoffman and Imogen Poots, A Late Quartet depicts explores the beauty of music and life-long relationships.
