Strings (Seasons 1–2)

Strings (2021) is a coming-of-age music drama you can watch online on iFILM. Four young cellists at the Gnessin Academy land in the class of a demanding new teacher.

He pushes them harder than anyone has before, on a level they aren't ready for. Then chance steps in: a phone clip of the four playing together goes viral, and almost overnight they become a quartet. From there the pull goes both ways — sudden fame on one side, a grueling international competition on the other, the kind you give up everything for. Around the music there are first romances, fallouts and the ordinary temptations of being young. The cast features Artyom Tkachenko, Alina Rachkovskaya and Eva Indenbaum. It's for anyone drawn to the world of a conservatory and the price talent quietly asks. Stream Strings online on iFILM.
