IVORY is a feature film produced by both Charles Carre and Laurence Gingold, Oberlin ’98, double degree graduates, and Oscar winning producer of The Godfather and Apocalypse Now, Grey Fredrickson.
IVORY is an Oberlin-centric film; it was inspired by Carre and Laurences’ experiences as students at Oberlin. IVORY is set in Oberlin and was partially filmed there and there are several distinctive Oberlin panoramas thorough out the film.
ABOUT THE FILM:
Andreas and Jake, both Oberlin students, are gifted classical pianists preparing to compete at the International Liszt Piano Competition in Budapest, Hungary. In the year leading up to the event, tension mounts as each young man prepares for the moment that will decide his lifelong fate. Andreas moves to Oberlin to study with a new piano teacher, convinced that her instruction and her position as a judge in the contest will give him a leg up. What he does not anticipate is that she will challenge him personally as well as musically — ultimately calling into question his artistic purpose. Jake, on the other hand, begins to unravel throughout the year. Living more dangerously all the time, one wonders if he will even make it to Budapest. To further complicate matters, Andreas becomes entwined in a love triangle with Jake’s girlfriend, a beautiful and gifted Oberlin student opera singer. The suspense builds in IVORY as the competition draws closer with more at stake for Andreas and Jake than just their onstage performances.
IVORY was shot by multi-Emmy Award and American Cinematography Society Lifetime achievement receipt, Donald Morgan; was edited by Academy Award Nominee, Tim Sternberg. And, IVORY stars an international cast of actors including Academy Award Winner Martin Landau.
