Who comes up with the idea to write „9 Unfinished symphonies“ or „1001 sonatas”? Like a postmodern Erik Satie the Belgian composer Boudewijn Buckinx is using music history as a playing field. The classical audience is irritated, the avantgardist wrinkles his nose. Why is my music so simple? Why is my music so complex? Following these questions, the film takes a closer look at Buckinx’ universe and his immense productivity. A portrait of an artist who is radically following his own path.
