In the early 1900s, teenaged Sunja, the adored daughter of a crippled fisherman, falls for a wealthy stranger. When she discovers she is pregnant–and that her lover is married–she accepts an offer of marriage from a gentle, sickly minister passing through on his way to Japan.

Wenn das Herz bricht, muss der Kopf die Entscheidungen treffen, und so weist sie den Vater ihres Sohnes zurück und nimmt das Heiratsangebot eines sanften, kränklichen Pfarrers an, der auf dem Weg nach Japan ist. Sunja weiß nicht, dass sie mit dieser Entscheidung eine dramatische Geschichte lostritt, die Folgen hat für alle weiteren Generationen.

She recorded the Brahms concerto, and a world tour was planned. Then, in a train station café, her violin was stolen. In an instant her world collapsed. She descended into a terrifying limbo land, unable to play another note.
