How did he get to be a brilliant violinist without anyone in Poland (of all places!) noticing? nothing is explained and nothing makes any sense. Nor does the strange behaviour of the other characters (particularly the doctor). To the original storyteller perhaps it does not matter, though the significance of anti-German suspicion seems to be raised but not explored.

DVD : Ladies in Lavender [2004] (REGION 1) (NTSC)
Two elderly ladies (Judi Dench, Maggie Smith) of good standing in the community and of some means find that a storm has washed up a well dressed young man (Daniel Brühl.)
