Tár (15)

Cate Blanchett stars as a respected conductor and composer who begins to lose the life she’s known when allegations of her abusive behaviour come to light. 

Lydia Tár (Cate Blanchett) is considered to be one of the greatest living conductor-composers of her time and is the first and only female conductor in the history of her orchestra. However, on the verge of conducting a career-shifting symphony, discordance within the orchestra and allegations of her abuse of power come to light, threatening Lydia’s career and her position in the public eye. 

With an award-winning performance by Blanchett, Tár beautifully documents the desperate struggle to preserve a life built and destroyed by fame.
