YOUR RATING
Thats why I am offering you a lot of money
The film is a dark comedy about a disillusioned piano teacher Glenn (Blake Ritson), who once aspired to be a concert pianist. He is moving back to his parents' house and is on the brink of giving up the piano for good when a Russian gangster Kilov (Olegar Fedoro) offers him a unique opportunity: £10,000 if Glenn teaches Kilov's daughter (who has never played piano) Beethoven's "Für Elise"... in a day - an impossible task.

      Kilov: I want you to teach my daughter to play the Jewish way.

      Glenn Millberg: [baffled] I'm not sure what you mean by that.

      Kilov: [teasing] Show her some of your little tricks.

      Glenn Millberg: O'kay, how about I teach her the C major scale for, let's say, £500 ?

      Kilov: [calmly] How about I break your hands?

      Glenn Millberg: Pardon?

      Kilov: How about I break your hands if you don't teach my daughter 'For Elsie' today?
