ON A STRING is an independent comedy about a struggling violist in New York City trying to find her footing in the classical music world. When her toxic ex-boyfriend reappears as the orchestra's newest star cellist, an unexpected opportunity puts her career aspirations back in focus.

Written, directed by, and starring Juilliard alumna Isabel Hagen, the film won Best Screenplay in the U.S. Narrative Feature category at the Tribeca Festival.

One thing I thought might be especially interesting to this community: nearly all of the musicians in the film are played by trained musicians performing live on camera, including Isabel's brother, pianist Oliver Hagen. The cast also includes Grammy-nominated violinist Ling Ling Huang.

We're hosting a one-night-only online screening next Thursday, November 12, followed by a live conversation with Isabel at 9 p.m. ET / 8 p.m. CT / 6 p.m. PT on The Lone Screen .

Full disclosure: I'm a co-founder of The Lone Screen, the platform hosting the screening.…
