One of the most critically acclaimed and highly awarded films of te year, the Piano arouses erotic passions and vengeful jealusies when Ada, a young mute woman (Holly Hunter), is desired by two men - her husband by an arranged marriage (Sam Neill) and the husband's darkly intense neighbor (Harvey Keitel). Violent emotions erupt, but only one man understands that Ada's heart can only be won though her beloved piano.
