Victoria is a documentary short about an old piano and the people who play her. Located in the St. Anthony Dining Room in San Francisco, Victoria is visited and played daily by many of San Francisco's homeless and low-income population. Although being out of tune, missing keys and having broken pedals, Victoria - as one guest says - "is just like us. She may be all broken, but she still plays, she still has a melody." An upright grand that has seen better days, Victoria, it could be argued, has never sounded so good.

Rated 4.0/5 Stars 1 2 3 4 5 sethlikesmovies 1:12 AM		It was great watching people who love music play music. It helps one appreciate the things he or she loves a little more. And Victoria, herself, is beautiful even with her imperfections.
