Blue Note (1991) Synopsis

George Sand's estate in Nohant is awash with visitors - including notables like the painter Delacroix and the writer Turgenev - while her family life is undergoing significant strain. Her daughter, Solange, is engaged, though she seems to be recently in love with Chopin, her mother's partner for nearly a decade. Tensions are brought to a head with fighting between mother and daughter, Chopin's terminal illness, which makes it increasingly difficult for him to compose music, and the sudden appearance of a young sculptor, Auguste, who becomes a rival for Solange's affections.
