Tuba Girl -- Film Description:
"In Tuba Girl, first-time director Michèle Muzzi creates a melodious coming-of-age story laced with humour and insight. When 13-year-old Marti's first love rejects her, she drops playing the flute and instead finds satisfaction in the world of the tuba. She hides what she considers to be the source of her romantic failure, her Cyrano-like nose, behind the instrument."
-- Stacey Donen
