Keith Jarrett’s iconic 1975 Köln Concert nearly didn’t happen. This film is based on the true story of Vera Brandes, who at just 18 conceived, organised and put on the event against all odds. From conceiving the original idea, securing the Köln Opera House and selling the tickets, to persuading Jarrett to go on when the promised Bösendorfer Imperial Grand piano didn’t materialise, Vera’s dynamism and energy bounces off the screen. The film reveals the compelling and little-known story behind Jarrett’s one-hour, entirely improvised concert, which went on to become the bestselling solo jazz album in history.
