I Am Not a Rock Star plot
Having great musical talent can be a blessing and a curse. At the age when most children are messing around in school, the gifted Canadian concert pianist Marika Bournaki is already well on her way to the big world stages. But is performing really her greatest passion? The documentary 'I Am Not a Rock Star' shows up close how much talent, dedication and luck it takes to reach the top in the classical music world over a long period of time. Child star Bournaki develops in front of the camera into a lively, enthusiastic twenty-something and in the meantime it becomes clear what bittersweet sacrifices her family made for her career.
