...plays a musicology professor suffering from Lou Gehrig's disease who tries to solve a musical mystery: why Beethoven, late in his life, became obsessed with writing variations on a minor waltz by a now forgotten contemporary composer. Writer and director Moises Kaufman (The Laramie Project) jumps back and forth in time - we see Beethoven in flashbacks - as the professor races to finish her research before the disease incapacitates her, while also trying to connect with the grown daughter from whom she has always been distant.
