AS IT IS IN HEAVEN (Så Som I Himmelen)


6:30 p.m.

A famed conductor tours the world hoping to create music that will open people's hearts. His own heart, however, is in bad shape. In fact, he suffers a heart attack onstage. Afterward he bids the music world farewell, returns to his hometown and buys an old, empty schoolhouse, where he hopes to live a quiet life. At first, he isn't recognized in the little village, because he's changed his last name. But a local minister discovers the world-famous conductor and asks him to work with the church choir. The choir improves, singing a successful local concert, and gets accepted to an Austrian competition. But tensions created by the conductor's presence have romantic, and tragic, side effects.
