2012 Sundance Predictions: Yaron Zilberman’s A Late Quartet

Date:

#35. A Late Quartet – Yaron Zilberman 

Not sure if Synecdoche, New York pair Philip Seymour Hoffman and Catherine Keener own or thought about buying a condo in Park City, they might as well since they might be back again for an umpteenth time. Already in the can for several months now, Yaron Zilberman’s first foray into fiction feature filmmaking pans out into fare we end up finding in Sundance every year. Almost seven years since his docu debut Watermarks, Zilberman would come to the fest without the stress of bidder wars as RKO Pictures have already picked up the drama. Look for A Late Quartet to receive a Premieres showing. Oh, and Christopher Walken and Imogen Poots also star.

Gist: Scripted by Zilberman and Seth Grossman, this centers on a world-renowned string quartet struggle to stay together in the face of death, competing egos and insuppressible lust. Set in iconic New York City, this is the story of four musicians, bound together by their passion for music and long years of working together. But when their patriarch Peter (Walken) is diagnosed with a terminal illness, the repercussions hit the group deeper than they could imagine.

Producers: Zilberman, David Faigenblum, Emanuel Michael, Tamar Sela, Mandy Tagger and Frederick Elmes
