Since he left Russia in 1963 Vladimir Ashkenazy has lived in the West almost constantly on tour; a Russian with an Icelandic wife and a house in London but no permanent home until June 1968, when he and his family made a new home in Iceland. This film contrasts the peace and quiet of his new retreat with the excitement and the tedium of a life of unending travel, and investigates some of the problems of a Russian artist coming to terms with the high traditions of Western music.
