00:00A wealthy young woman falls in love with a poor street musician.
00:02They spend one intimate night together on a rooftop.
00:05Soon after, she discovers she's pregnant.
00:07Her plan is simple, secretly give birth to the child,
00:09and then use it to force her father to approve their relationship.
00:12But when she's nine months pregnant, her father finds out her secret.
00:15After a fierce argument, Lila runs out in tears.
00:18She gets into a terrible car accident.
00:20When she wakes up from the coma, her father lies to her.
00:22He tells her the baby didn't survive.
00:24Heartbroken, Lila believes him.
00:26She decides she will never see the poor boy, Louis, again.
00:29What she doesn't know is that her baby is alive resting peacefully in the nursery.
00:32But he's about to be sent to an orphanage.
00:34It seems like their fates have been cut off.
00:36But destiny has other plans.
00:37Ten years pass.
00:38Lila gives up her career as a cellist and becomes a music teacher.
00:41Louis, the poor boy she once loved, has become a famous singer.
00:44But in his heart, he never stopped thinking about her.
00:47Perhaps by fate, Lila's father falls seriously ill.
00:49On his deathbed, he finally tells her the truth.
00:52Your baby didn't die.
00:53Oh my god.
00:55Baby, he could have hurt you.
00:56He could have hurt you and I.
00:57I wasn't gonna let that happen, Lila.
01:01Where is he?
01:02I don't know.
01:03Shocked, Lila wastes no time.
01:05She starts searching everywhere for her child.
01:07But she has no idea her son Evan is alive and growing up in an orphanage.
01:10Perhaps he inherited his parents' gift.
01:12From a very young age, Evan shows unimaginable musical talent.
01:16Unlike other children, he is obsessed with sound.
01:18Every sound becomes music in his ears.
01:20He believes this gift is a calling from his mother.
01:22So one day, he decides to run away and find them.
01:25But that impulsive decision will make their reunion much harder.
01:27Lila goes to the child services office to ask for information.
01:30They ask her to fill in forms and wait for a response.
01:33But she refuses to wait.
01:34Driven by desperation, she finds the director and pleads.
01:37I've always wanted him.
01:39I've waited 11 years, 2 months, and 15 days to find out that he's alive.
01:45I've been counting.
01:47The director is moved.
01:48He agrees to help her.
01:49At that moment, Lila notices a missing child poster on the wall.
01:52The photo catches her eye.
01:53Something in her heart tells her this is her son.
01:55After checking the records, the director confirms it.
01:58This is him.
02:00Yeah.
02:02When Lila arrives at the orphanage, she's told Evan ran away not long ago.
02:06Her only lead disappears.
02:07To increase her chances of finding him, she picks up her cello again.
02:10She thinks if she can be heard everywhere, her son will come find her.
02:13Meanwhile, Evan is walking alone through crowded streets.
02:16He hears music coming from a plaza and follows it.
02:18There's a street kid singing his name is Arthur.
02:20Evan is drawn to his voice.
02:21He gives him some money.
02:22When Arthur learns Evan has nowhere to stay, he offers him shelter on one condition.
02:26Buy him a pizza.
02:27So Evan trades a pizza for a place to stay.
02:29Arthur takes him to an old abandoned theater.
02:31There are many street kids living there orphans just like him.
02:34Soon, the leader shows up.
02:35They call him Wizard.
02:36Every day, Wizard collects the money the kids make from street performances.
02:40They're not allowed to spend a dime without his permission.
02:42When Wizard finds out about the pizza, he's furious.
02:45Arthur quickly says Evan bought it.
02:46Wizard calls Evan over.
02:48What's your name?
02:49Evan's room.
02:49What are you doing here?
02:51I followed the music.
02:52Wizard checks his hands, no calluses.
02:54He can tell Evan has never played an instrument.
02:56He walks away disappointed.
02:58But that night, Evan sneaks over to a guitar.
03:00He plucks a string.
03:01Taps the body playing with the sound.
03:03A beautiful melody fills the hall.
03:04Wizard hears it.
03:05He is stunned.
03:06He quickly realizes Evan is a once in a lifetime talent.
03:09He tells him the secret of music.
03:10It's everywhere.
03:11Like energy in the universe.
03:12If you can feel it, you can play it.
03:14That small conversation changes everything.
03:16Evan understands music better than anyone.
03:18The next day, Wizard brings him to the streets to perform.
03:21Evan plays like the notes are flowing from his soul.
03:23A crowd gathers.
03:24He earns more money than all the other kids combined.
03:26Wizard gives him a stage name, August.
03:28He says one day that name will shine on every marquee.
03:31But Evan doesn't care about fame.
03:32He only cares if his parents will see him on TV.
03:34Then one day posters appear.
03:36Missing child notices.
03:37Wizard begins to worry.
03:38He tries to make a deal with another busking boss to move Evan somewhere else somewhere with
03:42more traffic.
03:42But they argue over money.
03:44Evan starts to see Wizard differently.
03:46He realizes Wizard is using him.
03:47Watching other kids being hugged by their parents.
03:49Evan's eyes fill with tears.
03:51He plays harder and harder.
03:52He just wants to be found.
03:53Meanwhile, the orphanage director finds Arthur on the street and asks about Evan.
03:57Wizard rushes over to intervene.
03:59The director becomes suspicious and calls the police.
04:01That night, the police find the theater.
04:03Wizard panics.
04:04He lies to Evan.
04:04He says the police are there to take him back to the orphanage.
04:07He warns him, if anyone learns his real name, he'll be sent back.
04:10Evan believes him and runs away.
04:12He's lost.
04:12Cold.
04:13Alone.
04:13He walks into a church.
04:14A young girl is singing and notices him.
04:16She invites him inside.
04:17The next morning, she's playing piano.
04:19Evan is mesmerized.
04:20The girl shows him sheet music.
04:22He studies it quietly.
04:23After she leaves, Evan spends the whole afternoon writing music on the wall's pages of complex
04:27notes.
04:28When she returns, she's stunned.
04:29He only touched music that morning and by afternoon he's written an entire composition.
04:33She calls the pastor.
04:34The pastor listens.
04:35Evan sits at the piano, playing his own music.
04:38The pastor believes he's been sent by God.
04:39He calls a friend at Juilliard.
04:41Evan is sent to the best music academy in the city.
04:43The professors are amazed by his talent.
04:45One month later, he finishes writing a full Rhapsody.
04:48The dean is speechless.
04:49He decides Evan will perform the piece at the upcoming concert.
04:52Will a hundred people come?
04:53Evan asks.
04:54The professors laugh.
04:55This is a once every three years event.
04:57Thousands will be there.
04:58Evan is thrilled.
04:59He starts searching for inspiration everywhere hoping his parents will hear him.
05:02Even one of New York's top conductors comes to guide him.
05:05Meanwhile, Lila is invited to play cello at that very concert.
05:08If nothing goes wrong they will meet again.
05:09But Wizard finds Evan before the big night.
05:11He pretends to be Evan's father.
05:13A professor questions their relationship.
05:15Wizard lies and says he raised him.
05:16Under pressure, Evan leaves with Wizard.
05:18Once again, he is forced onto the street to perform.
05:21But that day, Louis hears his music.
05:23He follows the sound.
05:24He watches Evan play.
05:25He feels a strange closeness.
05:26They swap guitars play together on the ground.
05:29Their fingers move in harmony.
05:30Louis praises his natural musical soul.
05:32He doesn't know the boy is his son.
05:34They stop playing.
05:35Louis tries to talk more but Wizard shows up.
05:37He chases Louis away.
05:38That night the concert begins.
05:40Lila appears on stage.
05:41After 10 years she is still a legend.
05:43Her music reaches everyone's heart including Evan.
05:45Far away.
05:46I have to go now.
05:49I'm not coming back this time.
05:51As the crowd goes silent the final act begins.
05:53Suddenly the lights rise.
05:55A small figure stands center stage.
05:56Evan has arrived.
05:57He holds the conductor's baton.
05:59The orchestra awaits.
06:00He raises his hand.
06:01And music explodes like a storm.
06:03Elegant.
06:03Powerful.
06:04Alive.
06:04Lila turns in shock.
06:05She feels it the music.
06:06The connection.
06:07At that moment.
06:08Louis also arrives.
06:09He sees Lila.
06:1012 years rush back.
06:11Their eyes meet silent.
06:12But full of recognition.
06:14Evan feels something.
06:15He turns.
06:15He sees them.
06:16Their three destinies meet in that moment.
06:18But will Evan finally be reunited with his parents?
06:20Follow me to learn what happens next.
06:22I'll update the rest of the story soon.
06:24I'll update the rest of the story soon.
