» Tár is set in the contemporary world of Western classical music and centres on Lydia Tár, one of the world's most prolific composer-conductors and first ever female music director of a major German orchestra. While the film has the look and feel of a biopic, Lydia Tár is a fictional character. As portrayed here by Cate Blanchett, she's at the absolute height of her career and there seems to be no limit to what she's able to achieve. She's smart, talented, passionate about music and is ready to take her career to new heights. We see her as she goes about preparing to release her book titled Tár On Tár, as well as conduct a concert in which she tackles Mahler's most complex musical piece, the Fifth Symphony.
