She's pretty scared about facing the world as a single mother, but knows, or at least thinks, she can teach violin. Roberta begins as a substitute teacher with very little support, lots of rowdy kids and many skeptical parents, but persists in spite of the difficult conditions. Her struggles at home with her children and the men in her life add to the drama as she works hard at developing a strong music program in the community. From the visually impaired point of view. This movie starts out with a collage of pictures of Roberta growing up.
Descriptions are necessary because, as usual, the first five minutes are in silence.
It's a good time to breathe here because things don't get a whole lot better for awhile. The next few scenes are abrupt and kind of unclear, but soon she moves to New York and the movie becomes much easier to follow. There is one main character, Roberta, and her two children who are easy to understand. This is good. The music was fun, enjoyable and not really a distraction.
