CGiii Comment
The Basileus Quartet has been playing together for over 30 years, and its members have largely ignored life while pursuing their art. When the lead violinist suddenly dies, Diego (Omero Antonutti) and Alvaro (Héctor Alterio) start making up for lost time. Diego spends an afternoon with a pretty escort while Alvaro takes a long overdue trip to the doctor. When a young violinist (Pierre Malet) suggests getting the group back together, his offer unravels a chain of unintended consequences.
