What Vitus Is About

At five Vitus plays the piano like a master and reads encyclopedias. His parents expect a great career of him; what he wants is to spend time in his grandfather's carpentry workshop. After an accident he appears to have lost his gifts, and the family begins to accept it. Whether that is what actually happened is the film's question, and the summaries report it as settled fact. Fredi M. Murer is asking who a childhood belongs to. Bruno Ganz plays the grandfather, and the older Vitus is played by Teo Gheorghiu, a real piano prodigy.
