When Megha loses her father to Huntington's Disease - a rare incurable genetic disorder - she arms herself with a camera to understand what took him. As Megha and her family reflect on the slow but irrevocable changes that the disease brought to her father, she must also confront the fact that she might have inherited the genetic mutation herself.

 

The film chronicles the ambition and struggles of a young filmmaker who battles with the profound ethical dilemma of getting tested, and the implication that the outcome would have on everything from her family to her worldview. Piano Fingers paints an intimate portrait of a family that must learn to redefine hope, acceptance, fragility and their purpose in life in the face of this unsurmountable beast.
