Plot
The story centers around Gioachino Rossini, a composer whose friends never lose faith in him—even when things go wrong. A 9-year-old girl travels back in time through a magic mirror to be his invisible assistant, overcoming the disastrous opening night of The Barber of Seville to give the world one of its most beloved operas.[1]
