"Ana is involved in a car crash that sends her into a coma on the night of Christmas. The nurse recognises her and looks in the purse to find a contact name. The nurse visits a stranger called Sam who then unfolds the story of Ana de Falla. Ana was a secret prodigy with a dream to play piano in public. She loses her musical family and moves with her mother's lover and changes her surname to his, leaving her best friend (Sam) behind. She grows to be part of the greatest piano duet in the world- with the other half, her mother's lover! In her debut concert in New York, her bestfriend attends and recognizes her. "
