    Sedona News – The Sedona International Film Festival is proud to present the Sedona premiere of “The Piano Lesson”, showing Dec. 27-Jan. 2 at the Alice Gill-Sheldon Theatre.

    A battle is brewing in the Charles Household. At the center stands a prized heirloom piano tearing two siblings apart. On one side, a brother (John David Washington) plans to build the family fortune by selling it. On the other, a sister (Danielle Deadwyler) will go to any lengths to hold onto the sole vestige of the family’s heritage.  Their uncle (Samuel L. Jackson) tries to mediate, but even he can’t hold back the ghosts of the past.
