Short Summary
Career success and family ties challenge love and loyalty in this music-driven drama.
Broken Notes follows Isaac, a successful concert pianist and vocalist, as he prepares to perform to secure a promotion overseas in a big London concert venue. His signature performance is a duet between himself and his fiancée, Diana. Rehearsal before the performance finds the two of them struggling to successfully bring the harmony together, despite Isaac having edited the song many times over.
Dissonance is further caused when Isaac’s 5-year-old son, Aiden, enters the room with Isaac’s ex-wife Alaina, who has brought their son to see his dad perform as a birthday present.
Forced together in the rehearsal room, Isaac, Diana, and Alaina all find their desires pitted against one another as they try to suppress conflict in the presence of Aiden. Isaac is particularly torn within himself as an advance in his career, his relationship with Diana, and peace with his family are all put on the line. And secrets to the troublesome situation are revealed within the song Isaac is preparing for the big night.

The Impact
Broken families impact far too many of us. In addition to calling to attention to the pain so many broken people harbor in their hearts, this story also shines hope onto one man’s life that has been racked with guilt, shame, and division. Broken Notes lets us look closer into the life of a man who feels he may never be able to correct his own mistakes, and the lives of those impacted by his decisions. We hope that by offering a deeper look into lives trying to overcome guilt and regret, we may inspire hope and forgiveness to heal those wounds.
