Review: "One Perfect Day"

One Perfect Day is a story of self-discovery and triumph over tragedy, a story that explores the quest for dreams in unlikely situations and celebrates the genius that lies deep within all of us.


 
Tommy Matisse is a 22-year-old musical genius, obsessively following the classical heritage and unfulfilled dreams of his father.

Drug Culture, Party People and Music
While in London during his mission to complete his first ’Masterpiece’, Tommy shuts out the world around him. When tragedy strikes with the freak drug overdose death of his younger sister Emma, Tommy abandons his opera to reconnect with those he loves, and begins a soul searching quest to discover his true calling.

Tommy’s journey leads him into the depths of Melbourne nightlife and eventually to a famed underground nightclub known for cutting edge dance music.

The story intercuts between Tommy’s ’music of life’ sampling journey and the self-destructive path of his estranged girlfriend Alysse. While Tommy has always resented the drug culture of the dance scene, it is here that his music begins to flourish. And when club owner Hector Lee invites Tommy to compose a ’masterpiece’ for a generation of party-goers, Tommy begins to realize that maybe his destiny be found in this unlikely arena.

But when Hector lures Alysse into a fatal choice of drugs over love, Tommy must also choose whether to walk away from this dream or to transcend tragedy by composing a modern day opera that could change the lives of his audience forever.
