Ivan is a charming young man, who works in a post-communist violin factory in Bulgaria named Cremona, the biggest one in Eastern Europe. His greatest desire is to go to the world’s Mecca of violins – the city of Cremona in Italy, the home of Stradivari and Amati, which stands for glamour and exclusivity. The way in between is unexpectedly surprising and marked by dedication, long-lasting tradition and clever business plans. Will Ivan find his Cremona or will he go back?
