  Thirty years ago Andrei Simoniovich Filipov (Aleksei Guskov) was the celebrated conductor of the renowned Bolshoi Orchestra. But during the communist era he was fired at the height of his fame for refusing to get rid of all his Jewish musicians which included his best friend Sasha. Now demoted to the position of cleaner at the Bolshoi he learns by chance that the Ch''telet Theatre in Paris has invited the Orchestra to perform there. Andrei decides to reunite his orchestra and to perform in Paris in the place of the current Bolshoi Orchestra. He wants Anne-Marie Jacquet (M''lanie Laurent) a young virtuoso as the solo violinist to accompany his old Jewish and gypsy musicians. If they all manage to overcome the hardships ahead this very special concert will be a triumph.
