August Rush

August Rush

[DVD August]

This is the mystical and enchanting story of two musicians who fall in love, but due to outside interference, are together for only a brief time. It is also the story of an orphaned boy who hears the music that no one else hears. It is as if the music calls him out into the world to search for parents that he has always believed he would find. He also has a prodigy like ability to play and compose music. This ability stuns the music world and sets him out on a journey that creates both conflict and unwavering faith in his life. -- recommended by Patty L. - Walt Branch Library
