What is Petar's song about?
Petar loves playing his violin, and his lively music fills the village with dancing and happiness. But when war reaches the valley, Petar must flee with his mother and brother, leaving his father behind. In a strange new place, Petar is too sad to play, and his violin remains silent. Then, little by little, a new melody begins to grow inside him — a song of peace, hope and new beginnings. A moving story about conflict, family, courage and the healing power of music.
