Josh (Aric Floyd) is focused on one thing: winning a piano competition. He wants nothing to do with the father who keeps trying to get back into his life (he’s played by Kadeem Hardison from A Different World) or anyone else until Charlotte (Naomi Druskic in her first role) comes into his life. She’s a jazz pianist who keeps trying to distracts him to improve her chances of winning the contest.
However, the more time they spend together, the closer they become. Could the real winning be finding one another?
I was pretty surprised by the big names in this cast. Besides Hardison, Shannon Elizabeth (American Pie), Lyn Alicia Henderson (ER) and Clint Howard (do I even have to list roles for him?) are in this. Director Jenn Page comes from music videos and does a good job with this film.

B&S About Movies 
Wow! This was a surprise! A movie that focused around the character of two young (college age) youths that didn’t involve Sex, violence, foul language, CGI, fight scenes or sensationalized bad youth behavior! The mere fact that elderly adult characters were treated with respect by the young grabbed my attention immediately.
Yet this was not a “fluffy” or faith based family movie. If I had to use one phrase to describe this movie, I’d say it was “Well balanced”!
Director, Jenn Page did a superb job keeping the actors real and in the moment. The lead characters Aric Floyd (Josh) and Naomi Druskic (Charlotte) kept the acting innocent, grounded and were adorable to watch. At times I felt I was in the scene. The “Live music” was a nice touch and very entertaining even for those not familiar with Beethoven. This was not a musical, yet there was music and singing in the film. I liked it…. No, I LOVED it. A wholesome movie with a good story, good acting and wonderful music!
