English Summary:

Music of the Heart is a 1999 American musical drama film directed by Wes Craven and written by Pamela Gray, based on the 1995 documentary Small Wonders.

The film is a dramatization of the true story of Roberta Guaspari, portrayed by Meryl Streep, who co-founded the Opus 118 Harlem School of Music and fought for music education funding in New York City public schools. The film also stars Aidan Quinn, Gloria Estefan (in her film debut), and Angela Bassett. It was director Wes Craven's only non-horror film, aside from his contribution to the multifaceted and directorially diverse Paris, je t'aime. It was also his only film to receive Academy Award nominations.

In 1988 New York City, Roberta Guaspari, a recently divorced violinist, lives with her two sons, Alexi and Nicholas Tzavaras, and her mother, Assunta Guaspari. With Assunta's encouragement, Guaspari attempts to rebuild her life and is recommended to the head teacher of East Harlem's Central Park East School. Despite having little experience in actual music teaching, she accepts a substitute violin teaching position at Central Park East. With a combination of her toughness and determination, she inspires a group of children, and their initially skeptical parents. The program slowly develops and attracts publicity, eventually expanding to Central Park East II and River East Schools.

 

Hungarian Summary:

A negyvenes, kétgyermekes nőt elhagyta férje. Államról államra költözve nem tud otthonra lelni. New York legszegényebb negyedében, az egyik harlemi iskolában vállal zenetanári állást. Tapasztalatánál sokkalta nagyobb a lelkesedése. A kezdeti nehézségeket leküzdve mind eredményesebb tanítványai vannak. Ám pályája tizedik évfordulóján közlik vele: az iskola nem vállalja tovább a zeneoktatás költségeit.
