What is this very stylish film with actress Cate Blanchett about? Set in the field of classical music, Lydia Tár is a very elitist and cold orchestra director on the edge of losing sanity. In order to live and keep up with this sphere of highly capitalistic art, at least that’s how it is presented to us in the film and in order to afford a classy Porsche, to educate a daughter with a musician of the same sex, Tár needs to compete with the best of the best.
