Your Lie in April

Another film about child prodigies and their baggage, because classical music never hurt anyone. Kousei, once a piano prodigy, hasn't been able to hear his own playing since his mother's death until a chaotic violinist barges into his carefully muted world. She's allergic to subtlety, and somehow, that's what makes the notes come back.
