According to The Hollywood Reporter, The life and loves of Russian-American composer and pianist Sergei Rachmaninoff will be brought to the big screen in a feature that will begin location work in the summer in Russia and Spain, the producers said Tuesday.

Produced by London-, Luxembourg- and Russia-based Thema Prods. -- the company that took co-producer credits on Woody Allen's "Match Point" -- LILACS will tell the dramatic love story of the musical virtuoso.

Paris-based Russian Pavel Lounguine ("Taxi Blues") will direct the film, which is billed as a great love story rather than musical biography.
