"A music biography based on the remarkable life of Australian pianist David Helfgott. As a child prodigy he was expected to have a brilliant career, but a nervous breakdown on the brink of international success meant that he was institutionalised and without access to the instrument which he loved so much. His voyage out of that darkness into a life which became filled with love is the focus of this film. In a deeply affecting allegory that explores the symbiotic relationship between genius and madness, Director Hicks suggests that David's overbearing, overprotective father may have driven his son to the brink."@en

""George Malley (Travolta) is a small man in a small town, an agreeable auto mechanic who raises vegetables at his rural Northern California home, but can't get a date for his 37th birthday party. Taking a break from the beer bash, he wanders outside and is promptly struck down by a blinding light from the night sky, whereupon he returns to the party. Very quickly, however, he finds himself a changed man. He speaks Spanish, plays chess, reads several books per day, can't sleep due to his restless curiosity and, most strikingly, possesses electromagnetic powers that enable him to move inert objects. Flexing further, he predicts an earthquake, locates an ailing boy who is hiding away, and generally comes to embrace a soulfully heightened, spiritually generous view of humanity"--Variety review, June 24, 1996."

"This brilliant, wrenchingly emotional 1996 film traces the true story of Australian piano prodigy David Helfgott, from his precocious childhood to his emotional collapse and eventual recovery through music. David's father was a complex, often tyrannical man who pushed his son to excel musically. Yet when it became apparent that David had real talent, his father refused to let him study abroad, believing that it would tear his family apart. Under this stress, the young pianist eventually suffered a breakdown. It wasn't until middle age, while playing the piano in various bars -- and falling in love -- that David began to rebuild himself. Shine features a score of extraordinary performances, particularly from Oscar-winning Geoffrey Rush."@en
