Is just talent enough to become a real musician? Can music change your 
destiny? The answers to these questions lie waiting in a special 
Christopher Festival film screening.
On June 26 at 7 pm you’ll see the moving and intriguing story of a young 
pianist in the French drama-comedy In Your Hands (Au bout des doigts), 
shown on the big screen. Our emotions will be further stirred by the 
live performance of pianist, Simonas Poška.

About the film: IN YOUR HANDS / Au bout des doigts /
When he was still very young, Mathieu Malinski (actor Jules Benchetrit) 
demonstrated a special talent for music. With the help of his elderly 
neighbour, Monsieur Jacques (a former piano teacher), Mathieu becomes a 
true virtuoso. Unfortunately, after his neighbour passes away, Mathieu’s 
single mother cannot afford to continue her son’s education, nor give 
him the attention he needs. In time, the teenager turns down the path to 
becoming a petty criminal.

One day, when Matthew sits down to play at a public piano, the 
conservatory director Pierre Geitner (actor Lambert Wilson) immediately 
recognises the young man’s talent.

When Mathieu is caught by the police after yet another burglary, Pierre 
becomes the youth’s saviour, offering him a non-traditional punishment – 
six months of daily lessons at the conservatory. A new stage in 
Mathieu’s life begins, where he gradually overcomes his fears, fulfils 
his dreams and meets his first love.
