From writer-producer-director Todd Field comes TÁR, starring Cate Blanchett as Lydia Tár, the groundbreaking conductor of a major German Orchestra. We meet Tár at the height of her career, as she’s preparing both a book launch and much-anticipated live performance of Mahler’s Fifth Symphony. Over the ensuing weeks her life begins to unravel in a singularly modern way. The result is a searing examination of power, and its impact and durability in today’s society.
“But “Tár” is more than just a showcase for Blanchett’s brilliance (and it is that), it’s a refreshing, almost new type of cinematic narrative. Field, who only has two other films to his credit, uses the medium in breathtaking and invigorating ways.”
