A famous retired musician accepts an invitation to hold a concert that could be his last one. In search of the best sample of himself, this acclaimed artist will begin a journey, facing the danger of losing everything, even his life.
Synopsis:
At 83, acclaimed French musician Janko Nilović, with Montenegrin heritage (but born in Istanbul), accepts an invitation to hold a concert in his homeland for the first time. In his quest for self-discovery, he embarks on a transformative journey from Paris to Istanbul and Montenegro, revisiting his youth and facing the risk of losing it all. Winner of the Grammy Award in 2010, Nilović is a celebrated composer, arranger, and producer, sampled by artists like Jay Z, Morcheeba, and Dr. Dre. Despite his extensive musical career, he has never professionally engaged with Montenegro. Despite health challenges (recovering from cancer) and family objections, Janko's determination propels him on this emotional journey. Discovering the demolition of his childhood home in Istanbul (a new house will be built on that site) stirs deep emotions. However, upon arriving in his father's Montenegrin village, the reception is chilly due to fears of property claims. Janko's departure reflects his regret, both for risking his health and making the journey. This story underscores the power of music and the search for one's identity while posing questions about the lengths an artist will go to for the perfect melody and Nilović's enduring quest to understand his heritage. His encounter with his ancestral land unveils profound lessons amid the risk of losing it all.

Poznati penzionisani muzičar prihvata poziv da održi možda svoj poslednji koncert – u potrazi za najboljom verzijom sebe.
SInopsis:
Sa 83 godine, priznati francuski muzičar Janko Nilović, crnogorskog porijekla (ali rođen u Istanbulu), prihvata poziv da po prvi put održi koncert u svojoj domovini. U potrazi za sopstvenim identitetom, kreće na putovanje koje će ga promijeniti, od Pariza, preko Istanbula do Crne Gore, vraćajući se u mladost i suočavajući se s rizikom da sve izgubi. Dobitnik Gremija 2010. godine, Nilović je cijenjeni kompozitor, aranžer i producent, čija su djela koristili Jay Z, Morcheeba i Dr. Dre. Iako iza sebe ima ogromnu muzičku karijeru, nikada se profesionalno nije povezao s Crnom Gorom. Uprkos zdravstvenim teškoćama (oporavlja se od raka) i protivljenju porodice, Jankova odlučnost ga vodi na ovo emotivno putovanje. Vijest da je njegova kuća iz djetinjstva u Istanbulu srušena (na njenom mjestu gradiće se nova) duboko ga pogađa. A kada stiže u očev crnogorski zavičaj, dočekuje ga hladna atmosfera zbog straha od imovinskih zahtjeva. Jankov odlazak nosi osjećaj žaljenja, i zbog rizika po zdravlje, i zbog samog puta. Ova priča pokazuje snagu muzike i potragu za identitetom, ali i postavlja pitanje dokle je jedan umjetnik spreman da ide tragajući za savršenom melodijom i ustrajnim pokušajem da razumije svoje porijeklo. Susret s pradomovinom donosi mu bolne, ali i duboke spoznaje, uz stalni rizik da sve izgubi.
