Waltz in A minor Op. Posth

The film made in classical animation was inspired by Chopin’s music. The first notes of the waltz animate a girl from a picture hanging close to the piano. Upon being touched by the dancing girl, the sepia interiors of houses, winding roads of the Old Town and the people presented in the picture also get animated. Together with the girl the girl they all move to the world of fantasy and poetry.
