Jutta Hipp, Europe's First Lady of Jazz, actually never wanted to perform in public again after her all too short but all the more impressive career.
She gave up playing the piano many years ago. She still loves music, but her creative energy is now focussed on painting. With a lot of sensitive persuasion and the promise that she doesn't have to play the piano, the talk show host Leo manages to persuade Jutta to have one last conversation in public. As an elderly lady, she travels once again from New York to Germany to be a guest on Leo's talk show. Together with the Melba Liston Trio, they review the moving and eventful life of this exceptional artist. Her birthplace Leipzig and the beginning of her secret love for forbidden jazz during the National Socialist era are just as much a topic as her musical talent, her rise, her falls, her strokes of fate and her great triumphs in New York.
