- Synopsis
- Vienna, 1902: Alma Schindler meets Gustav Mahler. She beautiful, young, plays, and composes: music is her life. She becomes Mahler's lover, then he marries her, asking that she give up composing. She has two children, works as his assistant, does his books, saves him from debt, and feels stifled. In 1910, after the death of a child, she retreats to a spa where she falls in love with Walter Gropius. Will she go with him or stay with Mahler? She conducts an affair with the tempestuous Oskar Kokoschka and is stifled in another way. Then, she marries Gropius, who proves imperious. She leaves him for Franz Werfel: he finds her compositions and insists the public hear them.

- Critics' reviews
-
-
"Botches the chance to delve into the personality of a complex, alluring, and free-spirited woman."
-
"It's a movie of elegant surfaces, great background music (by both the Mahlers), gossipy underpinnings and pretensions to romantic grandeur."
-
"She is known as one of the great muses, yet director Bruce Beresford, Wynter and screenwriter Marilyn Levy are never clear if this is by design or chance."
-
"There's great music and lovely settings, but the filmmakers have done little more with their subject than reiterate the Britannica's description of her."
-
"The music is of course majestic, blending well with a loving cinematography"
-
"Was Alma a masochist? Repressed? Neurotic? A pre-feminist? Don't look for insight here."
