TÁR

As Lydia Tár subtly conducts her destruction, Blanchett moves in the opposite direction — towards brilliance. ” Dustin Chase Galveston Daily News

Oscar front-runner from writer-producer-director Todd Field comes TÁR, starring Cate Blanchett as Lydia Tár, the groundbreaking conductor of a major German Orchestra.

We meet Tár at the height of her career, as she’s preparing both a book launch and much-anticipated live performance of Mahler’s Fifth Symphony. Over the ensuing weeks her life begins to unravel in a singularly modern way. The result is a searing examination of power, and its impact and durability in today’s society.

This film has so much buzz around it and we can’t wait to see Blanchett in this role.
