The Piano Lesson (2024)
In 1936 ligt een sierlijk uitgesneden piano - het kostbaarste bezit van de familie Charles - stof te verzamelen in de salon van het huis van Berniece Charles in Pittsburgh. Wanneer Boy Willie, de uitbundige broer van Berniece, haar leven binnendringt met zijn droom om hetzelfde land in de Mississippi te kopen waar zijn familie als slaven had gewerkt, is hij van plan hun antieke piano te verkopen voor het geld dat hij nodig heeft om zijn toekomst te verzekeren. Maar Berniece weigert te verkopen en klampt zich vast aan de piano als herinnering aan de geschiedenis die hun familie-erfenis is.
