Willy Wolters sue�a con dirigir una orquesta de renombre internacional, aunque hay un peque�o inconveniente: Willy es una mujer. En 1926, pocos han visto a una mujer dirigiendo una orquesta y los conservatorios rara vez las admiten, a no ser que sea para estudiar alguno de los instrumentos considerados �femeninos�. Sin embargo, Willy est� decidida. Ella ser� la primera. Pero el destino es caprichoso, y cuando aparece el amor de su vida, la joven tendr� que escoger entre hacer caso a su coraz�n o perseguir un sue�o tal vez imposible. La directora de orquesta nos sumerge en la historia real de la holandesa Antonia Brico, una mujer que luch� incansablemente para hacerse un lugar entre los grandes de la m�sica cl�sica.
